Vue panoramique à couper le souffle, 15 minute du centre de Manhattan!

First time staying in NJ while visiting NYC and convenience of location was amazing!

- Main floor apartment was spacious, well furnished and clean, beds were comfortable

- Kitchen fully equipped with coffee maker, microwave, fridge with ice maker, stove and everything you need

- Upstairs tenant was not noisy, so no issue there

- Location on busy Boulevard E so do get traffic noise from cars and buses but certainly wasn’t an issue for us (in Nov anyway)

- WiFi worked well the whole time

- Open porch on front faces east with incredible view of NYC skyline, and fully furnished with chairs and tables to take advantage of that

- Convenience Store 1 block south and grocery store only a few block walk SE

- Mexican restaurant 1 block away and was very good (Charritos)

- Ligia very responsive to questions

Access to NYC is IDEAL:

- Buses from Port Authority back to Weehawken are easy to find, cheap at $3 pp, quick at under 15 min at end of day door to door, and SO convenient as Bus stop on 49th is right out front door (see Ligia’s directions for more details) - just tell bus driver your stop when you get on, or yell “next stop” when you hit Charritos restaurant

- Can also take into city but we always used ferries

- NY Waterways has Port Imperial right down the hill with frequent ferries to 3 piers in NYC. Just walk south to Charrito’s Mexican restaurant 1 block south, then down path behind it, down the stairs (4-5 storeys??) and then follow walkway to boat terminal (15 minute walk total). Download app for schedule and connecting buses at Midtown Pier.

- We used ferries to get to NYC each morning, mostly to Midtown, which then provides various bus routes which are free with transfer.

- Very quick and efficient system and always right on time.

- Pier 11 doesn’t run on weekends but Brookfield Place Pier handles needs to south, with a few stops on the way, but still quick.

- Interior and outside upper deck options on most ferries so great option.

- if you take ferry back to Weehawken, will have to walk back up stairs but wasn’t too bad (were no taxis) and lighted

Will definitely recommend and stay here again. Thanks Ligia!

Unfortunately our stay was not enjoyable. The accommodation was dirty, from the bath tub being full of black hairs, the kettle had grease all over it, the fridge was dirty, as were the bed covers. There was a knob missing on the cooker and the dishwasher moved when you opened the door.The overall standard was poor the house needs to be renovated. The outside furniture was unusable, there were cigarette butts in the ashtray

There was no welcome pack, no instructions on how to use anything.

Thank god we only booked 3 nights.

This was our second stay in this location, as we were there just a year prior. Ligia’s home is a wonderful vacation spot!! Extremely easy travel into Manhattan, but peaceful spot to rest after a busy day in the city with a view you will never forget!!! The house is charming and cozy, unique and interesting. And couldn’t ask for a more accommodating hostess. We will be back... again!!!

It was presented as a loft. The loft was actually the attic with a mattress on the floor. You could not stand up due to the peaked roof. Remodeling had been started but not finished. The view of Manhattan was awesome and very easy public transportation to Manhattan minutes away. I had no communication from landlady for instance address, phone number, pick up keys. We just got very lucky to find it.

This place is amazing! When you first walk in it smells Clean and the view of the city is perfect! Conveniently located, its a 5 minute ferry ride for $9 or a 15 minute bus ride for $3.50. Had a great trip and would stay here again in a heartbeat.
