While searching for a hotel for a week in NYC, I came across rentals and found Milton. And what a find he was! My husband and I stayed at his lovely brownstone while visiting our daughter who is at Columbia University. He is delightful and so willing to help make a visit perfect in every way possible.

Since we arrived late in the evening, we especially appreciated the quart of milk in the fridge the next morning, as well as the other goodies that he provided for us. We did not cook a lot but found that everything we needed (and a lot more) was provided when we did. The bed and bath linens are fresh and clean, the bed very comfortable, plenty of storage space to unpack during your stay, and fluffy towels were replaced several times during our stay.

The location was very convenient for us, both to Columbia and to the Metro stop. Taxis were easily hailed, too. For those of you wondering about staying in Harlem, we felt very safe walking, even in the evenings, along 125th and 126th Sts. and to the University.

I would definitely stay here again, regardless of what part of Manhattan I wanted to visit during the day. Especially for more than a day or so, having the kitchen and living space is so much nicer than being in a small, expensive hotel room. And besides, Milton's warm welcome made us feel like family! There are not enough stars on this review to adequate describe how much we enjoyed our stay.

Just Perfect

The apartment was immaculate, it was just what we were looking for my daughter and I (just perfect), It was beautifully decorated. After a long day sightseeing you can come back to the apartment and just relax in the beautiful garden or have a BBQ. Milton was kind and helpfull answered all of our questions totally enjoyed chatting with him.We will definitely stay there again.

The appartment was exactly what we expected. Even better. Warm, clean, spacious. Good location: nearby subway station (3 min walk, 10 min to Time Square), perfect breakfast at Sylwia's restaurant (3 min walk), jazz events in Lenox lounge (5 min walk), shopping. Very kind and attentive host. Met no problems at all. Would come back once more for sure.

Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful stay in this appartment. It's really close to the subway station which offers two lines to downtown and the most turistic attractions (10 minutes to Madison Square Garden). The appartment was much bigger than our expectation and an excellent value for money.The owner is an spetacular, kind and trustful person.
We definitely recommend it!

Wonderful Stay

Review Submitted: September 2, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
Visiting New York for the first time was a wonderful experience. The Garden Apartment was immaculate, clean and cozy. The barbeque grill was very useful while relaxing in the Garden after a long day of sightseeing. Transportation was readily available just one block to the subway taking us to Time Square, the theatre district, etc. The owner was very kind and very helpful whenever we needed him. We would definately stay there again next year.

Great Space and Location

Review Submitted: August 19, 2009 Date of Stay: August 2009
I thoroughly enjoyed my time in this cozy 1 bedroom apt in Harlem. It was charming, clean and very well maintained. The location was ideal and across from the subway, making it easy for us to quickly travel to many new york city tourist destinations. The owner was extremely kind and helpful and providing assistance as needed. The garden area was perfect for relaxing and grilling. I definitely plan to stay here on my next visit to New York. It was perfect.

We stayed one month while searching for a long term rental, and we had a wonderful time. Great location, great apartment, beautiful garden where we enjoyed barbecues.
Milton couldn't have been more helpful and nice. It really felt like home.
Thank you so much for everything you've done, and for being such a nice person.
A beautiful and human experience.
