"Perfect for a 1 night stay"

"Over all this is a nice property. Since there are 2 units at this property, Be careful of other guests that could possibly be there, as there were some when my friends and I visited. They were loud until 4 in the morning and hot boxed their unit. I would recommend the owner of the property instates a “no noise after ____ time” policy so that visitors don’t have to confront each other. The beds are VERY firm, almost rock like. Provided sheets are very thin/cheap. You can stream to the tvs from apple devices, idk about android. The neighborhood is a very mixed culture, there are renovations going on to make the area nicer, but it appears dicey after a certain time. Not somewhere I would walk around casually for anything at night. 20 minute uber/lyft to Newark Penn if you don’t want to drive into the city. (Roughly $20-$30) $6 each way from Newark Penn to Penn Station for the train or $2 and change each way to take PATH. "

"Close to the Highland Train Station to head into the city! Lots of steps but great place!"

"This is a beautiful home! Super clean, well equipped with everything you could conceivably need. The property owner is very responsonive and friendly. Book with absolute confidence!"

"The host was very responsive, immediately resolved an issue with the breaker as some outlets and the fridge were not working. Thank you again! "

"This house was decently located for visiting family. It was well kept and tidy and suited our needs for traveling with a group. Plenty of space and parking, and the beds are comfortable. If you usually have a morning coffee, note that the coffee maker is a keurig so you’ll need to plan accordingly or just go to the coffee shop about a 10 minute walk away."

"The streets where this is located seemed safe, fine generally. The area of Irvington seems to be underinvested in, so lots of trash around, and the street parking is wild (parking on main thoroughfares leading to cars zigzagging around and sudden stopping) if you're not from NJ. Doesn't affect the rating of the place though, just be aware of that. Pros: - The building is newly renovated - Finishings in the bathroom and kitchen are really nice, the space itself was decorated in a cute way - Very responsive to questions and issues with getting into the vrbo, times instructions were sent to us for check in/out Cons: - The walls/floors between the top level and bottom are way thin. We heard actual words of the conversation of the people above us, not to mention the crazy hard stomping, and door slamming at most hours of the evening. Partially due to the people not being super considerate, but the way that it could echo through the lower level was due to poor insulation. - There are only pillows provided for the king bed, so we ended up splitting 2 of the 4 provided for the trundle beds. When we looked for more there were two other pillows that were literally maybe an inch thick and stained. Pillows are a typical offering and it was very surprising to have that issue. - Biggest issue: there was active construction happening in the basement on our arrival and during the ENTIRE day on Friday. No word that that would be happening and it literally woke up everyone."

"I had a fantastic stay at Kay's home. The neighborhood, though initially questionable, turned out to be peaceful and secure. The house is filled with charming old-school touches and beautifully curated furnishings that I absolutely loved. While parking in the driveway is first come, first serve, there's an alternative lot available, which is convenient. Both Kay and the property manager, Karim, provided exceptional service, ensuring a delightful experience. Highly recommend this spot for travelers seeking comfort and convenience. Can't wait to return and enjoy the lovely ambiance again!"
