This was such a beautiful place to stay. It was super close to food and shopping. The subway was just a short walk away. We did not want to leave.

We loved the house. The pictures don’t do it justice; it is gorgeous! Across the street was a dog park and we enjoyed seeing them play. We chose to park at a local easy park place instead of on the street. It was less than a five minute walk there, as well as to the PATH station. Highly recommend this rental.

This is great place to stay if exploring New York City. It's just a 5 minute walk to the PATH station at Grove Street. Very comfortable space to relax and unwind after a day in the city.

This property was absolutely perfect for our long weekend trip to sight see in NYC with our kids. The property is absolutely beautiful and clean! The owner had helped with parking information prior to our trip, so I was able to pre-book parking. The lot we used is a short walk from the property. Our kids loved the Murphy bed! The Path station was also a short walk. Overall, this is probably the best property we have stayed at! Would definitely stay again!

The location, amenities. notes/instruction binder was all amazing. The architecture of the brownstone is wonderfully spacious and very comfortable. The check-in process was easy and simple. Could not have asked for a better stay.

I have rented many homes for our ladies trip in a lot of different states. This Jersey City townhouse is now one on my favorites. It is very comfortable and every room was very clean. The townhouse is only a few blocks from the Path station that takes you easily into Manhattan or all over New Jersey. Our host Kristina could not have been more accommodating. We are ladies in our early seventies and required some extra help with our stay and Kristina was wonderful. If you plan to visit New York this is the place to stay since it is less hectic then New York and close enough to get there with little effort. Kristina, thank you, for being a delightful host. We all hope to return one day. In the meantime we are sharing our great experience with all our friends in California.

We loved our stay in this beautiful flat. It's in a great area in Jersey City with lots of restaurants. A very easy PATH trip or ferry ride (our preference) into Manhattan. Such a nice quiet spot to recover from the city.
The flat itself is nicely decorated, comfortable, and the kitchen is a cook's dream with any equipment you may want.
My personal favorite was sitting on the back deck and watching squirrel politics.
A very enjoyable place to stay. We'll be back!

We really enjoyed our stay here in Jersey City. The apartment has everything you need. Ideally located to get directly to 33rd street in NYC using the PATH. Thank you very much Kristina for answering our question so promptly!

This was our second stay in this FABULOUS rental. The house is amazing! Perfect for 2 couples. The location is ideal. It is just a 10 minute walk to the PATH and then a 15 minute ride straight to the World Trade Center and the subway system. The house is across the street from a darling park and a 10 minute walk to a delightful area in Jersey City with anything you need. The beds are both super comfy and the 2 bathrooms great! The host is fantastic. We plan to stay here every trip to NYC if we can!

It was great place to rest after our long days in NYC. Much more space than we expected from the photos, our teenagers appreciated the room to chill. Nice job on the remodeling, modern amenities in a traditional brownstone.

We stayed for a week in this beautiful apartment, it has everything!
The beds are really comfortable, the kitchen has many new tools.
All the rooms are very clean.
Everything is working well.
The instructions are very clear.
And if you want to go to New York, the Path goes all day and it is a six minutes of walk and 10 minutes to World Trade Center.
The area is safe, we came back at 10p with no problems.
We stayed very well in this house, hope returning soon!
Thank to the owners.

This place was immaculate and had everything we needed. It was a quick and safe 10 minute walk to the PATH station which brought us to Manhattan in 15 minutes. The beds were comfortable and the check in was easy. Thank you for keeping this place up for visitors so nicely.

Nice unit, great location. Walk to Path station and many restaurants. Communication with the owner was very good. We went to New York City everyday with no issues. Walking around the area was pleasant with lots of other walkers. Plenty of good restaurants walking distance. We enjoyed every place we ate except Luna.
The unit was very clean and comfortable.

Loved how clean and well-furnished this rental was. The master king bed was very comfortable. We also liked how close the location is to the Grove Street PATH station. The host was accommodating and easy to communicate with. We would stay here again!

This was our first visit to the area and had a wonderful experience. The location of the brownstone is perfect for families. The lodging was clean and well supplied with what we needed for our stay. Description of the property is on par with what you are receiving and definitely be aware of the steep front steps; they are a workout on their own! Communication was timely with the property owner. We were very happy with our choice of lodging for this trip!

The best VRBO we've ever stayed in. Its location was perfect for everything we planned on doing for our ten day stay there. It is directly across from the Van Vorst Park where the Saturday market provides for delicious fruits, vegetables, and baked goods. A five minutes walk to the Path Grove Station where you can catch the train to Manhattan. From the Path Station, about 10 minutes to the WTC stop, 15 minutes to 9th Street in Greenwich Village. About 30 minutes from the Grove station to 33rd Street and then an easy connection to 42nd Street, Broadway. A must is the Pedestrian Zone, five minutes walk from the VRBO--excellent restaurants, pubs, as well as Walgreens. Post Office, a 15 minutes walk at 69 Montgomery Street. An excellent vegetarian restaurant is less than 5 minutes away from the VRBO--Uncle Momo's at 289 Grove Street. The VRBO is palatial in its beauty and size. Our host, Kristina, is a phone call away. When we visit NYC again, we will definitely stay in this Jersey City apartment again. Thank you, Kristina, for your awesome service and beautiful VRBO.

This property met and exceeded our expectations. It was very clean with plenty of space for our family of 6. With easy access to the Path, it made our journey to Manhattan very convenient. We felt safe at all times as the location was great and family friendly. We would highly recommend!

I would give 10 stars if I could! The apartment was beautiful and the attention to detail was apparent in every room! Extremely comfortable beds/linens and beautiful marble bathrooms. Very easy/quick/safe walk to the PATH station to head into WTC or Midtown, but Uber/Lyft into Manhattan/Brooklyn was very reasonable as well. Truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our stay here and we will definitely be back!!

The owners have done an amazing job of updating this brownstone, while maintaining the charm of the original architecture. It is the cleanest short term rental we have ever stayed in! Communication and everything was smooth and top notch. We also enjoyed the location, close to the PATH train, shopping and dining. Always felt safe walking around, even at night. The waterfront was an easy maybe 15 minute walk and a gorgeous place to take in the view of Manhattan. We needed 4 beds to accommodate our family. Sofa sleeper was not so great for an adult 20 something man, but would probably be fine for kids. Master bedroom was extremely comfortable, but you do hear the dog park across the street as well as sirens at various hours. We only noticed this in the front bedroom, not the rest of the house, and were sensitive to it because we live on a quiet 5 acre property in the country. The murphy bed was very comfortable for an adult, but you should know that if the murphy bed is in use, you have no TV in the main living space. This would probably be fine for most, but we had an adult twenty something son sleeping in this bed that wanted to lounge in it whenever we were there, which nixed my plans of the entire family watching Christmas movies whenever we were in, as he didn't want to give up his comfy space. Owner was kind enough to provide a twin air mattress which was also very comfortable. It was extremely cold outside when we were there, but I very much enjoyed a morning cup of coffee on the balcony and a glass of wine there on the evening of our arrival. Bonus is that you have a slight view of Manhattan from the balcony through the trees, which was a fun surprise! Pride of ownership shows and we enjoyed our stay.

We loved our stay at this home. The pictures don’t do justice to how beautiful it is. Definitely would recommend. It was so nice to be away from the craziness of NYC downtown. Each bed was comfortable. Host was amazing. Loved our stay.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here. The pictures actually do not do it justice. The apartment is more spacious than depicted and has been updated beautifully. Perfect for 2 Moms and 2 teenaged daughters. We never felt uncomfortable walking in the neighborhood and we were coming home from shows late at night. We did use the PATH which was extremely convenient. The owners have a great binder with helpful info about the apt, the area, etc. I have stayed in multiple VRBO places through the years and this one was by far the cleanest and though we didn’t cook appeared to be well equipped for it. The owners have thoughtfully placed a small table by the apt door so you can set items down while entering the code and there is a rack with umbrellas for your use as well.
I would highly recommend this place!

The Brownstone was even more lovely in person, than it appeared on the site. In a great neighborhood, immediately across the street from Van Vorst Park.
Very easy commute into NYC, either by the PATH train or water ferry. We experienced both, but for ease of use preferred the train.
Accommodations were perfect for my friend and I, as both the primary bedroom and the secondary, (Murphy-bed), bedroom had their own bathrooms. With the kitchen/dining room between the two, it offered just the right amount of separation and communal space. The queen-size Murphy-bed was very comfortable.
The pedestrian mall is less than a 10-minute walk and features tons of restaurants, bars and grocery/wine stores.
The Saturday Farmer's Market, (directly across the street in the park), is a must!
Highly recommend the Brownstone. After a busy day in the City, it's a respite to come home to.

My family and I have always stayed in Manhattan when visiting New York. Was looking for a little more room than a tiny hotel room. So glad we found this VRBO. The apartment is in such a cute neighborhood of Jersey. It is an easy walking distance to the subway. There were plenty of stores and restaurants within walking distance. The apartment was so clean. I had one question during my stay and the owner immediately responded and were very nice and helpful. I would certainly stay here again.

4 of us stayed in the brownstone and had a great time. The house is upscale, close to transportation and food, and overall perfect. Thanks for having us!

This place was perfect! The neighborhood is fantastic and there's a wonderful park just across the street. It was beautiful, very clean and comfortable and exactly as pictured and described. Beds and furniture were very comfortable, as was outdoor furniture on back deck. It was a little difficult for me at 5'2" to reach the upper shelves of the cabinets and refrigerator, which is raised, but others in my group were tall and had no problem. They have a very nice stepladder to assist the height challenged. We really enjoyed this our stay here and highly recommend it.

This was our first trip to NYC and we used this lovely apartment as a home base for touring the city. There were 4 adults and 1 teenager in our group. Space-wise it was a bit tight but we made it work. The kitchen worked well to prepare meals. The Grove Street PATH station was very convenient to get into the city. Seems like it (PATH) was less crowded to use during the week than the weekend. The area around the apartment is worth exploring. The dog park across the street didn’t bother us and we would be sensitive to it if it was a nuisance. However, wear earplugs at night if you are a lighter sleeper because there is city noise and some noise from the neighbors in the surrounding apartments. Nothing extreme, just normal. We live in a very quiet suburban area surrounded by 7 acres of woods and with earplugs, we were fine. Highly recommend this rental.
