A very nice and lovely place to stay. And it is very close to NYC. Just take transit bus lines 128, 165 or 166 and you will be at Time Square less then 60 minutes. In combination of NJTRANSIT and NYC-Metro-Card you will have all desired destinations of a little price - enjoye it! And getting out and walking 2 minutes you will have a prefect view of the skyline of NYC. In NJ you will have every thing needed in less then 15 minutes on foot. We loved it.

Beautifully furnished, clean and spacious apartment half an hour from Mid Manhattan by bus. It was very nice to come back to the apartment after a busy day in the city and the beds were very comfortable. Marianna was very helpful and gave us good information about the transport to Manhattan. We highly recommend this apartment if you want to relax after a day in the big city.

Dès la réservation, la qualité de nos nombreux échanges de mails et les conseils prodigués par Marianna, nous ont permis de bien préparer notre voyage (le 4ème pour ma part à NYC) et surtout a permis de nous rassuré sur la qualité de nos hôtes. Tout au long de notre séjour, Marianna a été prévenante avec un désir ressenti de faire en sorte que tout se passe bien. Elle a su allier conseils, bienveillance et discrétion. Nous étions entièrement indépendants et nos contacts se faisant au travers du site de réservation, sauf la veille de notre départ où nous avons eu le plaisir de faire sa connaissance ainsi que celle de son Mari. Nous avions décidé de faire notre trajet vers Manhattan en bus et nous avons été agréablement surpris par la proximité de l'arrêt (3 min à pied) avec une desserte régulière et rapide. Nous avons rarement attendu 10 min à l'arrêt et nous avons adoré le voyage nous faisant bénéficier de la Skyline sur la majorité du trajet d'environ 30 min pour rejoindre time Square. Pour l'anecdote... un jour où un accident avait coupé la circulation du trajet du bus, Marianna nous a spontanément formulé des conseils pour pouvoir rentrer par d'autres moyens de transport. Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet appartement très accueillant, décoré avec gout et très propre. La literie nous a notamment permis de bien récupérer de nos longues marches…

Appartement calme dans le NJ à environ 30 minutes de Time Square
Appartement calme dans le NJ à environ 30 minutes de Time Square
Nous avons voyagé avec nos deux filles de 10 et 6 ans et avons été très bien accueillis par Marianna qui avait préparé une corbeille de fruits et un petit déjeuner. L'appartement est calme, il n'y a aucun bruit extérieur, les propriétaires habitent au dessus mais on les entend peu. Le seul petit inconvénient est l'absence de plaque chauffante dans la cuisine, il y a néanmoins un micro ondes. Les chambres sont spacieuses et les lits confortables. Nous avons eu quelques fourmis et avons appelé Marianna qui a réglé le problème immédiatement. Elle a également très agréablement accepté que nous laissions nos valises sur place le dernier journée jusqu'au milieu de l'après-midi. Pour se rendre à Manhattan, il faut prendre le bus au coin de la rue, nous n'avons jamais attendu en partant le matin entre 9 heures et 9 heures et 1/2. Au retour, il faut absolument privilégier les bus privés qui partent sur la 42th street devant le restaurant grec, le retour peut être un peu plus long en raison des encombrements dans le tunnel, ensuite il n'y a plus de problème de circulation. Le coût pour une journée aller retour pour 4 personnes est de 24 dollars (la ligne régulière est un peu moins chère). Le transport en bus lorsqu'on séjourne à North Bergen est un supplément de temps et de fatigue par rapport à une résidence dans Manhattan, mais l'économie de prix et le calme la nuit sont des réels avantages. Nous garderons un très bon souvenir de notre séjour à New-York et remercions Marianna pour son très agréable accueil et sa grande disponibilité

The bus ride from the apartment/house share in North Bergen to the Port Authority Bus Terminal in Manhattan was usually about 30 minutes. But there were so many ants to contend with each morning and upon returning at night in the bathroom and around the living room and dining area. From cleaning up the ants, I found that the place had not been well cleaned, even though it seemed fairly clean. The beds were comfortable, but the comforters were too warm when the heating, which was controlled elsewhere, was on.

The property is exactly as the pictures show!

Two bedroom apartment is the perfect size for a small family. We went with our 12 year old daughter. You are able to walk down the block and have a great view of Manhattan. If you are not familiar with the subway system and plan to Uber to get everywhere it can get very spendy. While this location is 11 miles away you have to cross the river and that can take as long as 45 minutes due to the traffic. They have a smart TV to watch Netflix and Hulu if you have log ins for those. My husband was disappointed to go without the news for 4 days as there is no cable. The host was responsive and very kind.

We had a wonderful stay and enjoyed the great hospitality from the owner to help us moving in New York. Appartment is excellent and clean! The house is 1min away from the bus stop which brings you in 20 to times square. Brilliant! We would recommend this place to anyone. Not to forget, house is 100m away from the Huson with an amazing view on the skyline of Manhattan. For free 😉
