*Note: Our last place right outside of NYC got canceled by our landlord last minute which caused me some problems with guests who had already booked. This time, I *OWN* the place so I won't have to cancel on anyone.

LOCATION! LOCATION! LOCATION! 10 Minutes to a major city! We also barter stays for certain professional services such as web programming, photography etc...just ask.
Our home is impeccably clean and comfortable. We will make your stay the best Airbnb experience ever.

The proximity of Jen's place to Manhattan is great and easy to just jump on the bus to the Port Authority. I was disappointed that there was no cooking items (pots, pan's, or even a toaster). It was clear that Jen is in the process of moving out as there was no television. Not sure I would stay there again, but it was fine for somewhere to sleep but just not cook

To be honest, I had an OK experience all up even though I never actually stayed here (The host canceled my reservation). She was friendly and efficient when it came to booking and unfortunately my reservation had to be cancelled due to circumstances out of her control. Even so, she provided alternative options. Essentially a fairly neutral experience!!

I had a great stay at Jen's Place which was very comfortable and with convenient buses to the centre of New York for just a few dollars. I managed to trace a friend I met over 20 years ago on my first trip to the US which really made my trip. We went to some great restaurants and even chilled out by a rooftop pool in Midtown Manhatten. The Park Ave Bar & Grill, only yards from Jen's place, serves great food and fabulous deserts. Highly recommended. Regards, Manus.

everything went smooth. we really only saw ole girl the first day. she did go out of her way for us as we arrived very late. all in all it was a great alternative to pricey NYC hotels.

A great Location for only 50$ per night (+25$ with non-self-cleaning) ! The apartment was clean and well equiped (dishwasher, washing machine, kitchen, air conditioning) and my room had a king size bed! If I visit New York again, I'll come back to Jenn's Place!
Dorothy

The apartment was as described, though with limited cooking utensils. The bed was comfortable, but the sheets synthetic & worn thin. It was a quick $2.50 ride into NY sometimes, others it took a while as you can get stuck in traffic (unlike the subway). We never met Jen & as stated by a previous reviewer, were charged a cleaning fee/ key deposit which has not been refunded, despite fulfilling all conditions, which included cleaning the apartment, washing the sheets & remaking the bed.

BEFORE we arrived Jen was responding to our e-mail fast. We liked the apartment and that it was so close to the bus taking us down town. Jen also helped me out when I really needed a computer. Thanks for that. BUT Jen charged us a deposit for cleaning the room. We cleaned the room but we never got the deposit back. She didn't come to check the cleaning before we left and she now doesn't respond to mail. I hope nothing has happened to her.
Elsa

Excellent option to stay if you are visiting NY. Definitely, if it's possible, I would choose the same alternative again. The place is nice, comfortable, well equiped and clean. The location is extremely good if you consider how much are you paying for it. And I had an extra good luck, I kept the place for my own almost all the 7 days I was in NY 'cause the other guests left next day I arrived. In adition, Jennifer is a very friendly and nice girl. Thank you Jen!
Marie christine

Jen's place can be compared to a boutique hotel which has a comfortable bed, clean bathroom and enough space to lounge in the living room and kitchen. Everything that you might need are all walking distance and most importantly it is only 10 minutes away from Manhattan. I will definitely recommend her place to anyone who are interested in exploring New York with a small budget for accomodation.
Angele

L appartement de Jen est idéalement situe en dehors de l'agitation du centre de NY, plutôt bien desservi par les bus "gypsie".Propre et confortable,équipé d une machine a laver, d un sèche linge, de la clim et du WIFI.Quelques commerces et restaurants sont proches. La vue sur Manhattan est a 10 min de marche environ.Dommage que Jen demande une caution supplémentaire de 25 dollars pour le ménage, sous entendu que c'est a nous de nettoyer la chambre ainsi que les sols, la salle de bains...

It's a year ago now, that we stayed with Jen, but it was definedly worth recommending, I am only sorry I didn't do right away. Jen was very helpfull in every way we needed. The place was really nice, and the location was great. At first we looked for something on Manhattan, and didn't find it, but it turned out that the Manhattan skyline is best viewed at night from only a few minutes cosy walk away from Jens place, at a most wonderfull Mexican restaurant. If we go back to New York, we hope... More »

Staying with Jen in New York was an absolute pleasure. We got along really well and she really made me feel safe and welcome in the big scary city. Would absolutely stay with her again if I came to New York. Thanks heaps Jen!
Dave

Jen and little Davey make for the perfect hosts. The accommodation is delightful and immaculate. Jen is an inspirational woman and is passionate about creating a warm and comfortable environment for her guests. She is incredibly helpful and willing to go beyond the call of duty. The appartment is fabulously well kept and is a stones throw away from the BEST views of Manhatten. It is situated in a lovely developing area close to all the necessary amenities and a very quick bus ride... More »

Great place near city. Nice Lady. Bandwidth superb. Interesting other guests. The little dog was a trip, friendly and energetic. Helps outside apt if you se hable espanola. Be back some time soon, methinks.
Darren

All i can say is GREAT GREAT and GREAT! If you book this place with Jen you will not regret it!
Maria-anna

We had a very good experience renting from Jen. Even though we were an hour late, she waited for us to arrive on a Friday night, and had even reserved a parking space in her first floor garage. A very nice surprise that we did not have to park in the streets. Her apt is very nice and clean, we had the master bedroom with our own bathroom. She provided towels, and showed us the fridge and stove etc. in the open floor kitchen/livingroom. Very close to Holland tunnel, through which we went to... More »

I had a brilliant stay with Jen. She was a great host and her dog Davey is amazing! Easy for transportation and the place is clean.
Bob

yup Jenn run's a solid place / convinient location and eveything you need for the right price....great host
Daniel

We had Master Suite and Bedroom #1/2 --- everything other reviewers said is true - and more. Thanks Jennifer (may you live more than 40 more years!)
Maria

My husband and I stayed with Jen and her mini-dog, Davey, last week. The bus system into New York was really easy to use, and only a rocks throw from her apartment on Park Ave. Jennifer will make you feel comfortable and her cleanliness is way above par. From JFK we took the airtrain $5-, to the Metro $2.25 to Port Authority in Manhattan, from Port Authority we got on the 156 bus $3.25 for a total of around $12. Amazing! Every day we went into Manhattan or Hoboken. What a fun trip! Don't... More »

I hope I will visit again sometime in the near future
Liz

I'd like to thank Jen for letting us stay at her fab apartment in Union City. We arrived so late - around 1am-and she still let us in which we were so thankful for. Great hostess, great apartment and a great person to connect with. Definitely recommend staying at Jen's place.
Gigi

Jennifer was greeeeat! My bags were lost on the 1st night and Jennifer was beyond accommodating. I felt like she was a Godsend. Jenn is what you would imagine when you think of a perfect hostess and she cooked up a great welcoming dinner and an awesome breakfast with smoked salmon! Gourmet style :-) Thanks for everything Jenn, I am glad that I had the chance to meet you :-)
Alice

We stayed in rooms 3 and 4 at Jen's place. I've never met Jen before airbnb.com and I have to say I was super impressed!! Her place is beautiful, clean, wonderfully comfortable and close to Coney Island which we came to see. She is an amazing hostess, so friendly, warm and the ultimate hostess. Wonderful communication and I would definitely recommend Gerri friends. My only regret is not being able to stay longer. Room 4 has its own patio with incredible views. I drove there and street...

I had a great time. Jennifer is very accommodating, and her dog - a little chihauhau (sp?) - is a charmer. Jen in in transition. I believe she'll be leaving her penthouse in 30 days, so keep an eye open. No matter where she lands, you'll want to stop by her place.
Emily

We stayed in Room 4 at Jennifer's place. The space is tastefully decorated, clean, and comfortable. The balcony views are awesome, especially at night when the Verrazano bridge lights up. In the morning, the penthouse brings in lots of sunshine. The balcony warms up and you can see Coney Island. Jennifer herself, is a cool hostess who knows how to have fun.
James

Jen's place was even better than the pictures, unlike some of the other places on this site. Set up was very cool, nicely decorated and very clean. Take her up on her meal plan, she is a great cook and you will be eating healthy good food. She seemed like a very nice person who really cared, again very unlike some of the other places on this site that claim to be hospitable. Parking was easy and the train was probably 50 steps from her place. This place and host are the real deal if you are... More »
Kerry

She wasn't just a host, she was a friend. I'm a true believer that everything happens for a reason and I'm positive our paths were supposed to cross. When I arrived from my 6 hour treck to the city there was food waiting for me and a big hug as I entered the apartment. The house was everything it's advertised and more. I stayed in the smallest of the rooms but it was all I needed. The closet was huge and there is a heat/ac unit right in the room. The room stayed dark so you can sleep... More »
Kyle

Jennifer was an amazing host and more! It felt like we'd known her for years as we got a huge hug when she picked us up at the subway station after we got lost on the wrong train. Her dog Davey is so cute and friendly! We stayed with Jennifer for 5 amazing nights and couldn't have imagined staying anywhere else in the NYC area. She definitely rounded out the perfectness of our trip! And she's an amazing cook!! Room 4 had an awesome bed, great views from the private balcony, and a nice... More »
Randall

It's like staying with relatives...the kind you like! Lots to talk about, or go your own way...it's up to you. Highly recommended,
Sam

Jennifer was a great hostess! Clean, quiet, friendly and a great cook. Would love to stay with her again.

Ailish

I stayed here when I first moved over to New York for 2 weeks! It was a fantastic place to stay! The bed was so comfortable and it was so handy just walking two blocks to get the train into the city! Jen really is a great hostess! She treated us to gorgeous food and kept the place so clean...don't think I've ever seen anyone clean so much :) and she showed us some really great places! Definitely a great person to stay with!
