Other info

Thank you for considering a stay with us. We are a small family-run business located in the heart of one of the largest cities in the world, offering guests a unique experience that blends the intimacy of a small town with the excitement of New York City. To help ensure a pleasant stay for all our guests, we have developed some policies that we ask guests to familiarize themselves with before booking.

Discounts are not directly offered for monthly or annual stays as our pricing is already priced for prime location furnished extended stay rentals and is competitively priced compared to short-term stays at hotels or hotel alternatives in the area. However last minute discounts may be available via our airbnb listings. Contact us for airbnb links.

Our historic townhouse was built in the late 1800s and retains much of its original structure, which may not be suited for all accessibility needs. Please also keep in mind that this is not a modern structure and there may be signs of wear and tear.

The suites are not provided with a buzzer or intercom system so guests will need to coordinate with delivery services and meet them at the front door of the house. Additionally, as we are located in a bustling city, guests should expect some street noise from construction or traffic.

While we love pets, unfortunately, we cannot accommodate them at our property.

Please note that there is no laundry facility in the building, but guests have access to a multitude of nearby laundry and dry cleaning merchants that offer laundry service by the pound with free pick-up and delivery.

Finally, please note that the host resides on the premises.

We hope you have a pleasant experience with us and look forward to welcoming you.
