NYC ACROSS THE HUDSON RIVER 15 MIN

It was a fantastic experience staying at Miyoko´s place. The place is exactly as it is described. It is cozy, practical, warm and nice. The location is the best possible. It is really so easy to go to Manhatan, just 15 minutes by bus ( a truly experience of the American life). You have grocery shops in every corner, the neighborhood is great and safe, people are very kind. Miyoko and her husband were fantastic. they helped me out in all my needs. they were much more than hosts, they were friends. Every time I go to NYC I will stay with them and I recommend to everyone who wants to live this experience. It´s worth it!!

Everything was perfect, thank you Miyoko

Really nice apartment, exactly how it looks on the pictures. The location is great, 15 min of bus ride to get to Times Square. Myoko was very helpful and very accessible. Great stay, thank you Myoko!

We spent at Miyoko house three nights. The place is quiet and not too far from the centre - by the bus 15 - 20 min. If I will go again to NY, I would like to be accomodated at Miyoko. She is very nice and mainly helpfull person together with her familly.

Place was absolutely fantastic for the price - beds were clean and comfortable. Everything was very clean - did not try to use oven or kitchen in general, so do not know how well that works. There were four of us, we easily fit in the place. I did not get a chance to meet Miyoko, although she was very prompt in answering any questions that we had. Only downside - after a long night out, we discovered that taxis from Manhattan to the house cost $60 because cab drivers do not want to pay the toll. However, with 4 people, still not too bad in terms of cost.

Great host and place, spacious and clean.

Nice inviting apartment! I was initially afraid that it would be a hassle to get to NY from this place but the bus into New York was conveniently close and very easy for us (which is saying something as we were towing around our 6 month baby!). Thanks for a great stay we really enjoyed our stay and will definitely come back our next time in NY. We also enjoyed the neighborhood and the comfortable beds! Thanks!

We felt very much at home and enjoyed our stay. Appartement was very clean and confortable. Neighbourhood was quiet with two conveniance stors and good bus connections right arround the corner. Miyoko is a great host. Very considerate and helpful. We would enjoy staying at one of here appartements again and would recommend it to our friends. Thank you Miyoko for making our stay in NY so confortable.

Miyoko's place is wonderful and she was such a pleasant host! It made our stay affordable and enjoyable. She provided us with ALL the necessary information to get from Port Authority (NY) to the apartment. As a first-timer in New York and New Jersey I thought the commute would be confusing, but it couldn't have gone more smoothly. I stayed here with my boyfriend and brother and we had plenty of room and all the accomodations we could need. The pull out bed in the living room (with a memory foam mattress on top that Miyoko provides) was like heaven after a long day in the city. This is an ideal place for anybody looking to travel to NY but don't want to pay the ridiculous prices for hotels there. The bus rides to and from New York took no longer then 15 minutes each way and the bus stop is right around the block. On my next trip to New York, I will definately be staying at Miyoko's again.

Miyoko was very accommodating and provided whatever we needed during the stay. I liked the fact that we have our own living room and kitchen coz we always went home late. The location was awesome! All we need to do is go to Port Authority which is just behind Times Square and in 10 minutes we're home! I will definitely stay at her place again!

My stay at Miyokos apartment was simply great. The apartment was very comfortable, the neighbourhood was very nice, it took only 15 minutes to Manhattan by bus and the view to Manhattan was amazing! I really can recommend Miyokos place.

Miyoko´s apartment is very nice and clean place in quiet neighbourhood. It is short walk from the bus (that takes about 15-20min from Port Authority) and there are couple of small shops nearby. Beds are comfortable and there is everything you need in the apartment. There was only one minor flaw - there was no light in the basement where washing machine is kept but we borrowed one bulb from the flat and solved the problem:-) Miyoko is a great host, let us stay till later check out and we would definitely recomend her apartment.

This apartment was amazing. It has a lot of space, and the standard is very high. Here you have everything you need and it feels just like home. And it is very easy to get downtown to Manhattan. The bus stops right outside and takes maximum 15 minutes. You can also get a taxi down to the local town Hobokem and take the path down to lower manhattan. There is a lot of possibilities. The area is quiet and nice, and it is safe.

Everything was super clean and exactly as the pictures show. There was cable and wifi for us to use. The neighborhood was very quiet at night and nothing bothered us. I would not mind coming back here next time when my friends and I visit!

The apartments was great and spacious, the area is gorgeous you can see NYC off the hudson... Only thing that sucked was there is no parking what so ever ... yes they did offer a garage underneath the apt. But we were always coming in late and it was usually blocked by the other residence cars. I had to park 9 blocks away and got a stupid non residence ticket.... deff not Miyoko's fault West ny is just very strict.... Other than that the apt was great.

This apartment is everything it claims to be and more; clean, comfortable and convenient in a quiet neighborhood. Spacious and tastefully decorated, it also has a full range of amenities to make it your home away from home. Wireless internet and cable television were great for those moments when you need to get off your feet for a while and recover from your activities. Our stay was in the first week of January so we were also concerned about the climate inside tha apartment-- it was very comfortable and warm with no evidence of a host trying to cut corners but turning the thermostat down. We were stunned by the tremendous value we got for the cost---- talk about bang for the buck! Access to the city is literally steps away with the 123 Bus Route located right on the corner of 3rd and Palisade. Within minutes you are right in the center of it all! We were intimated by the prospect of having to learn how to navigate the greatest city on earth but your host simplifies it all by including detailed instructions in a binder on the kitchen island. You arrive at the Port Authority Bus Terminal which is short walk from some of the best that NYC has to offer. We easily walked to Madison Square Garden in about 10 minutes. Times Square is just a block off too! Getting back is just as easy with a stop, mid-block, between 4th and 3rd. It really doesn't get much easier. We drove to this location so parking was also a concern. No problem, free parking right at the apartment is available so there is one less thing to worry about. The only way we will choose a different property in the future is if this one is unavailable. We will absolutely come back to this apartment and look forward to our next excuse to stay here. This is an absolute gem for those who don't mind a short bus ride. This was our first Airbnb experience and it's hard to imagine it getting any better. Don't think twice about this property-- book it before someone else does!

We had a wonderful stay for 9 nights at the relatively big loft apartment in New Jersey. Our local host Vilma and their children (especially the young boy seemed like a professional hotel keeper) were very friendly, and helped us every time very kindly and very quick when we asked them for a favour -for example when we needed a pc for an internet reservation. Besides that, the location was very quietly and the hosts did never bother us - means also that you don't see them very often just to mention if you like to get in contact with your New York hosts. For us this was a further plus. The location of the apartment concerning the public transport and distance to the city Center to New York are great. - AND the view of manhattan just around the corner is just amazing - more impressive as when you stay in Manhattan for sure. There are also some good Hispanic chicken and bean restaurants within some minutes walking range in West New York. Thanks Miyoko and Vilma! Yours, Alex and Margit

Absolutely spotless and comfortable apartment! I didn't get to meet Miyoko but we were hosted by Vilma and both of them (Miyoko by phone and Vilma in person) were extremely prompt in helping us with whatever we needed. Easy/fast commute. Some of the folks in the group are light sleepers and woke up a few times on the first night because of noises made by the heating pipes (the apartment is in the basement), but that's mostly related to the unfamiliarity of it than with volume. One thing I was extremely thankful for was the fact that we were able to leave our luggage there for a couple of hours after check-out time, since our flight was later in the evening. Luggage storage can be a major (!!!) hassle in New York (believe me, I checked thoroughly) so that was an enormous favor they did for us and was greatly appreciated. We look forward to staying there or in one of Miyoko's other apartments again soon.

I stayed here with my husband and 2 friends and it was great! It was very comfortable and a WAY better option than staying in a hotel, especially since it wasn't just my husband and I. It had pleanty of room and everything was very clean and neat. The commute to the city was also very decent about a 15 minute ride on bus, depending on the traffic. Miyoko was extremely helpful and was super accesible if we ever had any questions. The host was great as well. Very accomidating! Our flight didn't leave until 7PM and although check-out was at noon, they let us stay a few extra hours so we wouldn't have to carry our luggage all over the city.

We had an outstanding stay at Miyoko's place. She was extremely hospitable and helpful. The place looks exactly as it does in the pictures. It is spotless clean and very comfortable. The apartment has a parking space outside so that was convenient for us as we drove. We were a family of 7 and we fit in perfectly. The location is great as well. Within 15-20 minutes, you can be in Times Square. There is also plenty of places to eat in Union City nearby and most of them deliver. I wouldn't stay anywhere else in New York!

I highly recommend Miyoko's apartment. Not only the apartment is comfortable but the host will make you feel right at home.
