"We stayed here for a month and really enjoyed it. The place was very clean, the furniture and appliances seemed fairly new, and everything was well taken care of. We especially liked the off-street parking, which gave us some extra peace of mind. Luis was super responsive and easy to reach, and even made his phone number available. He also helped us out when we needed to fix something on our car. We actually considered staying longer, but it was already booked for the weekend.Definitely recommend!"

"Nice condo, clean, very comfortable beds and furniture. Went for an event at MetLife Stadium and had no issues. Hosts were very helpful with a couple of unusual requests we had (our party split up and still needed access, no worries). Parking was not at all a problem as others had mentioned. If we find ourselves needing a place on the NJ side of the NYC metro again, this will be our first choice."
