Elegant 2-BD. Manhattan Escape Steps from Central Park

The apartment had all basic necessities for kitchen and shed rooms . Quiet.

Great stay on the west side. Easy access to the 1 line which took us in and out of midtown. very close to Central Park. Safe, clean and comfortable.

The location was perfect! The neighborhood is so charming. The space is nice and big. The property manager was responsive. The couch is a bit uncomfortable which made it tricky to spend much time relaxing in the living room…but there is so much to do in the neighborhood that we didn’t spend a lot of time there anyway. We loved our stay!

The property manager we were put in touch with was lovely, and I appreciate her responsiveness. Otherwise, some aspects of the stay were not ideal. We were stopped by other residents of the building on a few occassions and told that the unit was not a legal short-term rental (I have no idea if that is true or not), but it made us feel very uncomfortable. The check-in process was also a bit sub-par; I had asked the host if I could have the address in the morning of check-in so that I could arrange a car service before our flight. I was then called on the flight instead (I obviously didn't get it), and it took a fair amount of back-and-forth before I got the information, which was stressful. When we arrived, we found exactly 2 bath towels and one floor towel (no other hand towels or kitchen towels) for our expensive 3-night stay with a family of 4. When I contacted the property manager, she dropped off more towels the next day, which I appreciated. On our second night there, the carbon monoxide detector went off in the middle of the night -- we couldn't tell if it was an actual alarm or a warning that the batteries were low; either way, it was frustrating to be woken and unsettling sleeping there with our children.
