If you need to park your car, please note there is a 2-hour parking limit on most streets during the day and you are not able to leave your car overnight on most streets. Unfortunately, I cannot be responsible for your vehicle when it is parked on the street.

Secure parking is available in the locked and gated driveway behind the building. You must pay the parking fee in advance to the host. The fee is $25 per car per day. The driveway can fit up to 2 cars. You will be able to lock and unlock the driveway gate to access your vehicle. Contact me in advance of booking for more details and to know if parking is available and how to pay for parking.

I am available to answer your questions before and during your stay. I want you to be comfortable and have an amazing experience. I prefer that we communicate via the platform. Thank you.

Nice family neighborhood with stores, laundromat, and restaurants nearby. Well lit at night. Safe and quiet. Good alternative to New York.

You can reach this location by taxi, Uber, or bus. The easiest way to NYC Midtown Manhattan is to take NJ Transit Bus 123 at the corner of 24th St and Palisade Ave (one block away). The return bus leaves from Gate 214 in Port Authority Bus Terminal. It costs $3.50 per ride. The ride takes 10-15 minutes.

Please note that heat is provided from October 1 to April 30. Air conditioning is provided from May 1 to September 30.

The amenities that are listed at the time you book the unit are the amenities provided. Please review this list of amenities before booking.

Self check-in and check-out are available. I have a lockbox with keys at the entry door to the building. I will send you the code to the lock box on the day of your arrival.

The check-in window is 4:00 pm to 11:00 pm. If you are planning to arrive after 11:00 pm, you must clear this with me. I may not be available to support you during check-in if you arrive very late at night.

Please note that this apartment is located in a historic, older building. Some recent guests have arrived with higher expectations than what I can provide given the age of the building. The apartment looks like the photos in the listing and I keep it updated and clean. It is a basic space with basic amenities. If you are looking for a functional and competitively priced place very close to New York City, this would be a good space for you. If you are looking for a modern and luxury stay, this is probably not the place for you.

I also just want to make clear that you are renting an apartment and not a hotel room. There are many differences between apartments and hotels, and some newer guests may not realize it. Hotels are large and often have many rooms, and the ability to change your room should issues arise. Hotels also have staff 24/7 that can help you with every issue or questions that you may have. On the other hand, I am an individual host and manage my listings to the best of my ability. I try hard to create a good experience for my guests. I am including this disclaimer here because I have recently seen a rise in guests that seem to view my apartment as very similar to a hotel, but in reality it is quite different. Thank you in advance for understanding this.

Finally, I have a yacht parked not far from this location. If you are coming to New York for tourism and you would like a private boat tour of New York Harbor, I would be happy to arrange it for an additional fee. The views of Manhattan, the Statue of Liberty, etc. are amazing out on the water. Please contact me for more details if you are interested in a tour. Thank you.

Guests are responsible for bagging their garbage and placing it in one of the bins in front of the building.

Please wash all dishes that you use, remove food that you've brought in, and discard all trash. My cleaning fee is lower than most and it covers basic cleaning like washing of linens and towels, vacuuming, etc. The cleaning fee does not cover deep cleaning, excessive kitchen and bathroom cleaning, etc. Thanks for your cooperation!

If you check out late, there will be a $100 per hour fee for each hour or fraction of an hour that you stay beyond the check out time.

If you smoke, use incense, use drugs of any kind (including marijuana and cannabis) anywhere on the property including outside areas and common areas, I will charge a $300 fee. If there are damages related to smoking or drug use, I will charge fees in addition to this $300.
