  Only thing I didn’t like is some things were different from the picture. The location isn’t everything but it was great where you dont Have to worry about people bothering you. Had a great stay n the house is big and beautiful.

  The host Bose was wonderful! She was very responsive and helpful! We had a slight issue with the address not coming up on the Uber app but we immediately got it handled! I would highly recommend this! The NJ transit bus is right in front of the home!

• Good stay

  The host Bose was very friendly and helpful! The home was great! We did have one issue with Uber not finding the address and took us to another location with the exact same address but in a different zip code. The host was willing to send us another Uber. We got it sorted out and was able to find the correct address. The NJ transit bus comes directly in front of the home so that was good. It was an overall good experience riding in to New York from New Jersey.

• OK to start but horrible at the end

  1/5

  The property was generally as advertised,. Interiors were marginally clean, but the exterior was consistently littered with trash. (For example, a soiled diaper was left by the side of the house for almost our entire stay.)Furnishings were entirely inadequate. The sectional sofa has a broken back, and the ottoman is broken as well. One bedroom window was broken as well and could not be closed.The wifi provider was spotty, dropping to below 25 mbps at times.Kitchenware and flatware were almost non existent. There were four mismatched plastic plates (the property is supposed to be for six people!), and two chipped pots.Linens were also a hodgepodge collection with threadbare towels.Traffic on the facing street can be pretty loud, even at night.There was confusion about checkout, and the owner even complained bitterly about the utility bill (we showered once a day and did laundry once a week). Communication was challenging because of the owner’s fluency in English.

  Manager's Response:

  Hi Kyle K, we take guest feedback seriously and passed your comments on to the homeowner who would like to share the following:
  - We were both surprised and confused by your feedback as you previously left a review almost immediately after your first reservation and stated "Everything, from check-in and throughout our stay, was absolutely perfect! The property is exactly as described and pictured (there were absolutely no surprises). Our host was both responsive and proactive - the word "gracious" keeps coming to mind. Thank you!". We're sorry that there were complications with your financial institution that prevented you from enjoying a second stay with us, but this was completely out of our control.
  We do all we can to make the best possible stay, and we look forward to this property hosting many satisfied guests.
