Monthly Rentals in Randalls and Wards Islands

I absolutely loved my stay at Tia’s airbnb. The apartment was clean, tidy, well-stocked with essentials (and more), and located in the cutest UES neighborhood. The amenities in her apartment are not typical for other new york apartments, including a large kitchen, dishwasher, washer/dryer, AC, etc. There are very accessible subway stops and bus stop nearby as well, with tons of restaurants and shops within walking distance. The location felt very safe during my entire stay. It quickly felt like home to me. Tia is also such a lovely host, even letting me check in hours in advance because my flight got in early. Can’t say enough good things about her and her apartment. Will definitely rebook the next time I’m in New York!

I stayed in Michael's wonderful apartment for nearly a month. It is a pristine, lovingly cared for home, and I felt so lucky to be able to share this space. Thank you to Michael for all the kindness and hospitality. I had lived in New York for seven years and so I know the city well; it was a gift to be back.

The accommodation and conditions fully correspond to the description. Excellent kitchen, in case you eat at home. The host is very responsive and friendly, met us at check-in and gave recommendations on attractions and transport. Solved all the issues that arose. I recommend this apartment.

This place is in a great location - it is basically on the border of upper Manhattan and East (Spanish) Harlem. It is an easy commute to and from Manhattan, with short walks from the M15 north -bound (2nd Ave) and south-bound (1st Ave - 3 min walk) bus lines. The subway walk to 116th and Lexington is a bit longer, but doable at 15 min of leisure strolling. Other reviewers have commented on the walk to the train station as "sketchy". As in all things New York, you should be on the alert after 9 PM on any street. I did not feel in any particular danger that I had felt in parts of other boroughs, to include Brooklyn and the Bronx. Jillian is a very proactive and communicative host - she usually responded to us within minutes. The apartment is wonderful and very modernistic. The closet could use a few more hangers. My only wish would be a more solid mattress, but compared to all the positives of this place, I'll still stay there again.
