Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Upper Manhattan

Had a great time staying here. Very responsive and helpful host which made the stay so much better. I always felt like I could contact them about anything and they would get back to me in 5-10 minutes max. Space was amazing and they were very accommodating to my check in schedule. I wish check out was a little later but I can respect if the time which I imagine they have their reasons for.

The place was very cozy and homey. It was renovated very recently, so everything felt new. The living room and kitchen were spacious and well equipped. It was evident that Karla the host thought about all the small details to make this a great stay. The house is a walkable distance from bus routes to NYC. Karla is super responsive and addressed all the questions we had quickly and efficiently!

Great place and location for a concert at MetLife. Irene was helpful and quick to communicate. Would stay again if I go to an event in the area.

Casa Tua was perfect for us! House was beautiful and comfortable. It was nice to have a place to "come home to" after our days of exploring the city. The neighborhood was peaceful with plenty of restaurants and shops. Maya and Christopher were fantastic hosts. I would for sure stay here again!

We had a great time at Abby and Mary's apartment. The location is great! Quiet but still super fast by bus to Midtown Manhattan. We will be happy to come back.

A quiet little cut out from the noisy nature of the city. Anyone staying here will definitely get their money’s worth. I would gladly stay here again.

It was my first time in NYC and Airbnb. This place was very good, subway is accessible for easy travel. Laila was very helpful, guided well and supported to understand instructions better. As a first timer, it was very helpful to have a host who was very patient. I fully recommend staying here for anyone visiting NYC!

Very clean, everything as described, access to the center of NY about 26 minutes by line 166T. The place is worth the price, but I think that due to the couch, which is uncomfortable to sleep on, the place is suitable for 2 adults, possibly with children. Besides, everything is a plus. The store is about 20 minutes on foot. The neighborhood is very quiet and peaceful. The photos reflect the real condition of the property.

Quiet location, easy access to public transportation and NYC sights. Four of us were in town visiting family, and it was nice to have a "home away from home". The apartment is well-appointed with spacious bedrooms, a stocked kitchen (including a dishwasher), reliable wifi, and even the little details like extra towels and umbrellas for changes in the weather. Our hosts were very responsive and provided solid recommendations for nearby dining -- P&M Pizza, Village Chicken and Red Kup were very convenient. Would not hesitate to rebook.

Great place but probably not the best if your 5’10 or taller

Everything about this apartment was excellent. Locale, layout, spotless. Couldn't get enough of both the daytime and nighttime views. Steven was an excellent host. Communicative, answered my myriad of questions, provided recommendations for a great nearby grocery and wine store that we frequented several times. Easy to get a taxi and a short walk to the subway. Started to feel like a local after just a day or so! This will for sure be our go-to place next time we visit NYC.

I dealt with Hope's husband, Matt. I have to say he was one of if not the best communicators of many hosts I've dealt with. Also very helpful especially dealing with the finances of the stay. After I booked he offered some very legit means of saving money. Then when some things came up and I had to cut my stay short, Matt generously refunded my entire fee. Many hosts are very 'stingy' if things come up (which happens to everyone once in a while) and won't refund unless they can rebook, or will prorate. That's fine, but doesn't feel good. Matt was more concerned about my having a good experience with him than milking our transaction for every dollar. 5 star host! The place itself was clean and in a great location. Be aware it photographs larger than it feels in person. And might seem a tiny bit noisy if you aren't used to NYC apartment living. Those minor quibbles were more than made up for by working with excellent hosts who are compassionate and care about their guests experience.

I stayed a week here by myself. The room, while not huge, was almost the same size as my son's hotel room in Times Square. The bathroom was very nice and clean. The bed was very comfortable and is on an adjustable frame, which made sleeping much more enjoyable. Julia and John, and their daughter are beyond helpful and nice. I spent a few available hours just talking with them and getting to know their story. They are beautiful people. Access to the apartment is 1 block from a subway station. Very easy access. You are very close to some amazing paths and parks. Beautiful and quiet area. Close to restaurants, and even major grocery and retail stores are no more than a few streets away. I would definitely stay there again, if only to visit with Julia and John again.

Amazing stay! Great location and look exactly like the pictures! Fully stalked kitchen and essentials in bathroom. Definitely recommend!!

Great and homey place to stay for a few days of touristing in NYC. Quiet street, close to convenient public transit, restaurants, and grocery. No problems getting in or with the unit.

In thirteen years of NYC Airbnbs, this was the best one I've ever experienced for the classic Airbnb use case: a unique, character-rich, place to stay that's nevertheless super easy to get into and seamlessly comfortable. Natasha and Nate clearly love their home and neighborhood and have carefully thought through how to help their guests enjoy both. We hadn't stayed in Harlem before and especially appreciated the restaurant recommendations, especially Ponty Bistro and Indian Summer. Thank you!

Location Location Location! Very hard to find a neat place to stay on UWS. This apartment has great restaurant selection right at the door step. Either for a cozy dinner or kids crazy morning routine. Keep in mind this is NYC so not elevator access if you need but it was ok for us even with stroller. Overall recommend this place if you budget allows.

Great place to stay while visiting family. As I grew up in the area I know my way around, but easy to get around for anyone! The bay is a beautiful site when you walk up the block. There are many places to visit in walking distance as well as plenty of transportation choices withing walking distance. Plenty of places to eat as well, with many different choices of food. Nice private quite apartment, I will be staying again in the Fall.

Benjamin was a great host and very responsive. We have 3 dogs that travel with us and sometimes finding an Airbnb can be difficult. With a dedicated parking spot and grassy fenced in back yard this Airbnb was perfect for us. The space looked just like the photos, clean and everything we needed. The location was great, a quick walk to the light rail and we were able to get over to the city quickly. Will definitely be looking to book here again when we travel this way in the future.

I felt home at once in this beautifully furnished place. Antony was friendly and welcoming, and I could not have been more comfortable. The neighborhood felt very safe and was not noisy, and I found everything I needed within a short walk. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and although 6 stars is not a rating, I was more comfortable here than at many other places I have rated with a 5. I recommend it without reservation.

Our family of 4 stayed 5 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The location was perfect. We were able to walk to the path in 5 min to connect to the NYC subways. On the walk, you pass multiple cafes and coffee shops. Great craft beer and wine shop on the corner. Pizza shop, Basile’s, right next to the PATH is perfect for a late night snack. The beds were comfortable, and even though there was some street noise heard at night, a sound machine was provided to help lull you to sleep. The only thing you have to be aware of is the unit is located on the 2nd floor, and you have to go up a narrow set of stairs which can be hard with multiple suitcases. Other than that, a comfortable and convenient place to stay with everything within walking distance!

Great location. Easy access to Manhattan. Very helpful host. Clean apartment. Will definitely stay here again when visiting NY. Very enjoyable experience.

We loved our stay in Helen’s apartment. Location - just far enough away from Times Square - but within walking distance. Lots of amenities close by. The apartment is so very comfortable.

Great apartment in a nice area of Hoboken. We used this as a base for our trip to New York so did not spend much time at the place but the location is great, you are close to the station (10-15 minute walk) which takes you to Manhattan Midtown or the Financial District at World Trade Centre. The area in Hoboken is also very nice, you are nearby the Hoboken waterfront which offers great views of Manhattan and an opportunity to slow down from fast pace of Manhattan. Further you are next to Washington Street, which has lots of restaurants and bars, we particularly enjoyed starting the day with Bagels on the Hudson. The apartment itself is spacious, clean and had everything we needed. AJ was always quick to respond for any questions we had. Overall, would recommend.
