my partner and i drove up from SC to spend the new year at Times Square and it was great! it was our first time up north and the host was always a help whenever we had questions about how to move around the city. location is very nice and the neighborhood is quiet. it is like 30 minutes from Times Square and the drive there was always breathtaking. the home is perfect for a small getaway. now the home wasn’t as clean as expected, but that’s the only negative thing we can say. if we ever decide to come back to NY we will look for this home again!

We took a chance, because of low reviews. We have done lots of traveling over the last 20+ years. The price was reasonable, but the accommodations were lacking, the heat was very poor(we set the thermostat to 78° and the temperature never got over 68°). We were cold while sleeping, we those we had an electric heater, it was only a fan, no heat. It would have been nice if there were more blankets, we both have arthritis, and the cold sleeping caused pain in the morning. The headboard was a king size, the mattress was only a double. The hot water heater was lacking, the shower was on the cold side of lukewarm and the water in the shower leaked the whole time we were there. The couch looked okay but was very uncomfortable when we sat down(looked like something out of a first apartment, you know young 20-something, just moved out of mom and dad's house) There was a functioning coffee pot and kettle, for coffee and tea in the morning; this and the easy access to the train were the reasons the score was not lower. The price was only justified by the close proximity to the train station and the coffee that was available. I sent a text message around noon on the day of check-in, because I had not received the check-in instructions. The instructions arrived within 45 minutes, I then get a message a few hours later(around 5PM asking when we were going to check-in) the owner knew we were traveling from North Carolina, to visit NYC, my messages went unanswered.

VRBO states the property will not have the owner present. Not true at this property. The footsteps could be heard due to inadequate sound proofing. I'm uncertain if there's heating in the bedroom. Yes, there's a portable heater, but we didn't use it. Yes, it was clean but updates are desperately needed needed. There are not enough electrical outlets and electricalcords are utlized in the living room as well as in the bedroom, it's dark bc lack of windows but light fixtures don't provide enough light either, the bathroom is especially dark. The price is not justified given the property's condition.

Further from town than I thought. Didn’t feel comfortable And I’m a Dolphin fan lol
