Designers apartment on the Upper East Side
I absolutely loved my stay at Tia’s airbnb. The apartment was clean, tidy, well-stocked with essentials (and more), and located in the cutest UES neighborhood. The amenities in her apartment are not typical for other new york apartments, including a large kitchen, dishwasher, washer/dryer, AC, etc. There are very accessible subway stops and bus stop nearby as well, with tons of restaurants and shops within walking distance. The location felt very safe during my entire stay. It quickly felt like home to me. Tia is also such a lovely host, even letting me check in hours in advance because my flight got in early. Can’t say enough good things about her and her apartment. Will definitely rebook the next time I’m in New York!

The Green Room: 70s Groove Themed Studio
The location of the Green Room is spectacular. On this very single block, you have Kiehls (a 'famous' NYC-based skincare shop) an adorable coffee/tea/pastry shop, Le Pain Quotidien (great baked goods, and plenty of seating for a variety of very good quality breakfast/lunch/early dinner options), an old-school NYC steakhouse/bar, a really good French restaurant, and a Japanese omakase restaurant - literally downstairs from the apartment. Easy walking distance to Bloomingdales (under a 5-min. walk), Central Park (about a 5-10 min. walk), and lots of shopping on 5th Avenue, heading down towards St. Patrick's Cathedral and Rockefeller Center (a 15-20 min. walk from the apartment). The apartment faces the back or 'inside' of the block, so there is no street noise to disturb your sleep. Bed was very comfortable, and bathroom very nice/clean/new fixtures.

Park Ave Prime Location + Rooftop
Great place! Comfy beds. Killer outdoor space. Read all the reviews! Echo what others said. There are quirks - it’s an old building - but it’s lovely.

Luxe Studio with Charming Juliet Balcony
Amazing stay! Great location and look exactly like the pictures! Fully stalked kitchen and essentials in bathroom. Definitely recommend!!

Gorgeous space near Hells Kitchen and Midtown West
The apartment is better in person than the photos. Gorgeous panoramic views of the city. Very comfortable primary bedroom and an old-school pull out in the living room (where my son slept). The apartment was quiet and very clean. Steven was very good at communicating and got back to me right away with any concerns. The apartment is located in Midtown and the area felt safe. I highly recommend Steven’s apartment, especially if you are looking for a room with a view and an excellent host.

Exclusive Penthouse Loft w Balcony + Insane View
The Blue Moon was a real treat, an architectural gem with deep local family roots. It was named one of National Geographic Traveler’s “150 Hotels in the Western Hemisphere to Check Into” and featured in Rizzoli’s Best 100 Little Hotels. The team made our stay even better with their warm hospitality and seamless transportation to and from the airport. Bram, the owner, was the highlight. He’s not just running a hotel, he’s preserving a piece of New York history. Bram personally restored the building, blending original details with his own artistic vision. His artwork lines the walls, and his stories, about the neighborhood, the building, and his family, bring the place to life. You can tell he’s poured his soul into every corner of the Blue Moon. The hotel offers great views and a prime location, just steps from SoHo, Chinatown, and downtown. If you get the chance to stay at the Blue Moon, don’t pass it up.

Lovely 1 bedroom with Garden in NYC
Raymond’s place was excellent - easily the best stay we’ve ever had at an AirBNB in NYC. Incredibly quiet space, very cool in the summer heat, super accessible to everything, lots of food options nearby, and it’s clear a lot of love has gone into it over the years. He was also very communicative about the only You should absolutely stay at Raymond’s place - we will be again the next time we’re in town. Thank you Raymond!!

Luxe Studio in the UES

White Space Studio
Milton's home was perfect for our New York trip. It was just the right size, with the right amenities. It was easy to get downtown on the express A train, and we also were able to walk to historic sites in Harlem. Milton was so friendly and helpful, it was a pleasure to meet him. Thank you!

One bedroom apartment close to New York City
Great place but probably not the best if your 5’10 or taller

Sweet Stay!
Host was nice, and the place was a very nice studio apartment. No complaints.

Best view of Manhattan skyline
We had a wonderful time staying at Michelle's place. The location of the Airbnb was incredible - getting into and out of New York was very straightforward using the bus, and Michelle's instructions were very helpful. The view from the bedroom was also stunning. Thank you for hosting us!

Home Away From Home – Midtown
Had a great stay at Marco's place - it's compact but you still get way more room than in a hotel. Good location not far from a subway stop with a really good takeaway pizza place at the end of the road. Marco was fast to respond to any queries and really helpful in allowing us to leave our luggage in the apartment we had a late flight. 100% recommended!

Beautiful studio minutes from NYC
Great place in a great location! The hosts were communicative throughout and checked in with us during our stay. Free snacks and water were also provided, which was thoughtful. Thank you!

unique artist's apartment in Manhattan
Absolutely beautiful apartment, on entry the apartment smelt beautiful, with fresh Lilies in the main living room area and in one of the bedrooms. Spotless apartment and exactly like the photos, great attention to detail and eco friendly! great neighborhood suggestions and so very responsive to any questions, very quiet building and quiet apartment in general. Dominik also reached out a week before us arriving which was very thoughtful! would definitely recommend and go back and stay! we both had lived in NY many years ago so it was lovely to be in a familiar neighborhood and see how things had changed.

Prime Location 2BDR Loft: Patio, Steps to Subway
Beautiful historic house. Annie was very responsive and helpful!
Apartment rentals with a hot tub

NY King Studio retreat w Jacuzzi
An excellent place to stay in Harlem, centrally located near the 125th street subway station. You can easily get anywhere you want to go quick and easy. Lots of good restaurants nearby, along with bodegas and a (albeit expensive) grocery store. Its nice that the owners live on site, and they were very helpful and friendly. Having a big tub with jets in the room is a huge bonus if you aren't used to the amount of walking you are in for in NY. I'll definitely be back!

Ultra modern by Riverside
Everything about this apartment was excellent. Locale, layout, spotless. Couldn't get enough of both the daytime and nighttime views. Steven was an excellent host. Communicative, answered my myriad of questions, provided recommendations for a great nearby grocery and wine store that we frequented several times. Easy to get a taxi and a short walk to the subway. Started to feel like a local after just a day or so! This will for sure be our go-to place next time we visit NYC.

Brand new Luxury 2 Bed, 2. Bath
Nicely renovated basement apartment. Ben was a wonderful host and made our stay comfortable. Kitchen had everything that we needed and having a designated parking spot was great. It is a short walk away from the apartment. Backyard was ideal has we were traveling with our dog. Location was perfect for our event at Liberty State Park. Would recommend if you plan to visit Jersey City.

Posh Couple's Suite-Private Patio w/jacuzzi
I will definitely be back ! Such a relaxing space , so clean & beautiful!

Newly Renovated Apt w/Parking Space
Wonderful place,enjoyed my stay

@the Chillspot Duplex ( KNG sz Bds) 3 bathrooms
From start to finish this was a brilliant experience. Flat is amazing so well equipped. All the appliances seemed brand new and of very high quality. there is a corner store deli at end of the block. A park a couple of blocks away. . Whilst it is not super close to any single metro it is walking distance to quite a few different lines which makes sightseeing and exploring super easy. We had a couple of really warm days so it was fantastic to have the lovely private deck for breakfast or a drink in the evening . This was one of the best Airbnbs ive been in. Cubyson and team were so kind and accomodating . if you are thinking about this one just do it....clean ...safe ..well equiped and great location. the games room with a big fridge and kitchenette was a perfect hang out space . We were a family group of 6 adults....2 couples and 2 singles so this was perfect.

Low cleaning fee, pool,swing, EWR 7min , NYC 27min
My sister and I had a short overnight stay and we absolutely loved it! It’s such a cute place. It was just as described and perfect for the night. The host was very quick and responsive to our inquiries. The building is very easy to find and we felt safe with security in the building. The neighborhood is nice. The day of check out we walked around and ate at a local restaurants. We definitely will be back and recommend!

Sun Drenched Penthouse with Million Dollar Views
The view is priceless. By day, by night, anytime. The apartment itself is great, too: spacious, well furnished, a huge kitchen, perfectly equipped. Less than 20 minutes by bus to Times Square, but located in a calm and safe neighborhood across the Hudson River. For some, the steps up to the fifth floor might be an impediment, but that’s really the only issue I could think of. Absolute recommendation!
