Do not book this apartment. We were not provided with check in information and were left scrambling (in the rain) trying to find another place to stay in New York, one day before the Football World Cup final, when accommodation was extremely scarce and very expensive. This host should be removed from VRBO.

Honestly, worst experience I've ever had renting a property. Felt like I got scammed from the start. Arrived at JFK at 3. Still had no address from host. Was about 3:30 & I had to tell the taxi to head to the Upper West Side & I would give him address when I got it. When we finally got a response from "host," it was after 4 on day of check in. Got to address he gave me & it was a completely different property. Neither the host nor the property mgmt company bothered to mention that they changed our property ever. When I called & said "this is NOT the property I reserved," they acted oblivious at first and then said "There was a maintenance issue with the other property. You are lucky to get a property." While the replacement property was clean, it looked like it was a shelter or jail cell, not the cute apt I had reserved. Mismatching, very cheap linens on beds, old threadbare towels. They offered to cancel our reservation with a “full” refund. But since we got there late afternoon&had plans, we were stuck and ended up having to stay the first night. Checked out early the next day because the property was nothing close to what we had reserved. They were completely unapologetic & gaslit us telling us they had 4 other families that would jump at the place if we weren't satisfied. I read their reviews in cab ride and saw this bait/switch has happened before to others. So not the first time. Also, got refunded 4/5 days, they kept the ENTIRE host fee. Beware of this property.

I made the reservation to stay at this listing in November for my daughter’s graduation in May. I sent a message to the property early in the day to confirm a time and location to get the key, but no one responded. I got to the listing well ahead of my 4:00 check in. At 4:12 I called the host number to check the status of the check in since I haven’t heard from anyone. At 4:17 the property manager called me back to report that there was a problem with the boiler. He said they've been trying to repair it all day and I won’t be able to stay there. I’m a home owner and I know things happen. I didn’t appreciate the poor communication. It was after my check in time when they informed me that I wouldn’t be staying there even though they knew all day that it was a big problem. After a long day of traveling, it left me in a bind. I didn’t appreciate it and I thought it was disrespectful, unprofessional, and unreliable to leave someone hanging like that. When I was traveling and waiting to hear from them, I could’ve been looking for another place to stay that was suitable.

The apartment was perfect! Location perfect! It was the coldest week of the year and the lockbox was buried under a foot of snow and they had someone come dig it out and open it for us! 9/10 I hold back the 1 because the welcome instructions say the property manager will contact you 2-3 hours before check in. And that didn’t happen I had to walk 2 blocks with 2 suitcases and bags because they didn’t call and the address wasn’t correct. Really frustrating in 15 degrees but it all worked out

The property manager we were put in touch with was lovely, and I appreciate her responsiveness. Otherwise, some aspects of the stay were not ideal. We were stopped by other residents of the building on a few occassions and told that the unit was not a legal short-term rental (I have no idea if that is true or not), but it made us feel very uncomfortable. The check-in process was also a bit sub-par; I had asked the host if I could have the address in the morning of check-in so that I could arrange a car service before our flight. I was then called on the flight instead (I obviously didn't get it), and it took a fair amount of back-and-forth before I got the information, which was stressful. When we arrived, we found exactly 2 bath towels and one floor towel (no other hand towels or kitchen towels) for our expensive 3-night stay with a family of 4. When I contacted the property manager, she dropped off more towels the next day, which I appreciated. On our second night there, the carbon monoxide detector went off in the middle of the night -- we couldn't tell if it was an actual alarm or a warning that the batteries were low; either way, it was frustrating to be woken and unsettling sleeping there with our children.
