The apartment was cute, clean, and had everything we needed - except there was no TV. There was a little problem with the futon, but Jane immediately came in and fixed it! Great location, nice quiet street in the heart of a neighborhood with everything you could want.
June 2010Jane's apt is great and I'd highly recommend for 2-4 ppl--it's very clean, simple, and she's easy to contact during your stay. The Upper East Side is a great location and much quieter/peaceful than the rest of Manhattan. Her apt is very close to the Subway as well. Free parking on the street is OK on weekends but very difficult on weekdays. If you're looking for a clean apt, good bed, and a shower than this place is great.
Great apt. Very comfortable for three 20-something year old guys.
This is our first trip to NYC and It was a great experience for us. The place was very comfortable and Jane was very helpful. We were close to subway. Thanks for everything Jane!
The apartment is perfect. The location is great and the neighborhood rocks, full of nice people and all kind of shops. Jane helped me a lot, she was so nice. She left coffee, cookies, juice, cereals & all the cleaning things at home. She was so helpful with everything I needed. If I have to review her place is definitely A+ (or 10 over 10)
The apartment was everything that we expected. It was very small, but cozy. The heater works but only when it wants to, you have not control over it! The only thing that we didnt expect was to get yelled at by the neighbors for coming in a little tipsy one night. other then that it was a good experience.
Jane was a very helpful and attentive host. We were four people sleeping in her apartment and we all had a great time in New York. The location is very convenient (close to the museum raw and Central Park and above all a subway station). The Internet is very fast. The bathroom is nice too. I can only recommend this place to everyone willing to save a few bucks and spend a good time in NY.
Jane was super helpful with everything I needed. At one time I asked for an iron and her neighbor was so sweet and brought it over. The location was amazing and the host was wonderful. The bed was very comfortable, the water gets hot quickly and the internet was very fast. I would definitely recommend staying with Jane.
The location was excellent however I was disappointed with the apartment overall - it wasn't as clean as I would have expected and lacked many of the basic necessities that would have helped to make the stay more enjoyable.
My two friends and I stayed at Jane's apartment. It was very simple but worked well for what we needed (mainly a place to sleep and keep all of our stuff during the day!). Computer access (and wifi) was very nice to have, and you can always watch tv online for entertainment, since there was no tv. The apartment was conveniently located just a few blocks from a subway station on the green line -- we had no problem getting wherever we needed to go. I never actually met Jane, but her brother...

My cousin and I liked the apartment. The location is very good. Jane is really helpful. We were out most of the time however missed a TV set. Availability of Internet compensated for this. The bathroom is O.K. but needs cosmetic repair. The staircase is rather steep (like most of them in NY). Maybe not very good for older people. It was not a problem for me. We would stay again!
My sister Susan and I had a great time at Jane's. It was clean (important to us)and only two blocks from the subway and great location for walking in Central Park. It was also warm and had access to fresh air! We would stay again!
Great location close to the Central Park. Easy to get to subway. Good for sleeping of four people. Good deal for the price for four people. Very quiet for Manhattan standard. Need chairs and diner table.(if can squize in). We met with Jane´s brother who was nice and took care of us. Jane was helpful with all sort of questions we had prior to our arrival. Overall very nice stay for a good value.
Apartment is in good area of Manhatanu (near of subway). For 3 or 4 people it is small - it is OK only for sleeping. There need me some table and chairs. Jane was very lovely.
