Eugene was a great host and prompt with communications. His place is clean and conveniently located waking distance to 2 subway stations. Three flight of stairs are not an easy task if you have a heavy luggage and a fan is a must for these summer nights. I'm sure I found a new friend on Eugene.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene was welcoming and gracious. He was very reliable and helpful in orienting me to the apartment and the neighborhood. The room was simple and reasonably priced; the location was perfect for attending a conference at Columbia. Many thanks, Eugene!
Jun 27, 2019The host canceled this reservation 10 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Jun 27, 2019it's a good place to stay
Jul 27, 2019Room and apartment were very nice and clean, and hosts were extremely relaxed, welcoming and helpful.
Jun 27, 2019Thanks for your welcome! we love this place so much. it's good location ,clean and warmest host ever!!
Jun 27, 2019.
Jun 27, 2019I never meet Eugene, Randy was our go to guy. He was very nice, helpful and overall that really contributed to our stay. If you don't mind sharing space, bathroom, etc, and want to spend alot of time at museums, central park, etc. Certainly consider this apartment.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay at Eugenes place. The flat is lovely and the flat is super cozy yet spacious. Public transport is nearby (116th and 125th) which makes it easy and fast to go downtown. The area has many nice options for food and bars and the flat is just next to Columbia. I never met Eugene personally but he has been very responsive, helpful and checked in regularly. His flatmate Julian has been the best and was helpful at all times and recommended some great spots to go to in nyc. Would definitely recommend this place and go there again any time!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene's place was an excellent place to stay. I was in NYC for a course at Columbia University. It was an easy walk from the apartment to the university. It has so many different restaurants around to try and it is super close to transportation. Eugene answered all my questions quickly and with grade advice. I had an excellent stay!
Jun 27, 2019The room was super cosy, nice and clean. The whole apartment is very interesting and very very clean. The location was great too, very close to the city center and metro. Brunch places in the neighborhood were nice too. Eugene is such a great host! Not only that he makes sure that you don't need anything, but also he gives a lot of great recommendations for super nice places in New York. I am very grateful that we met him and stayed at his place, it felt like you are visiting a really good friend! Thanks for everything! :)
Jul 27, 2019My two children (18 and 21) had a great stay at Eugene's place. They found the apartment clean, comfortable and within easy walking distance to the nearest subway - with only a short subway ride to the centre of Manhattan it was in an excellent location. Eugene was very kind and ready to help in any way he could as well as being interesting and easy to chat to. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a place to stay in New York.
Jun 27, 2019Staying at Eugene's apartment was a great experience. The apartment is located in a very good area near Columbia University, easily connected to the rest of Manhattan. The room was spacious, comfortable and very clean. Also, the living room and kitchen were nice spacious spaces. Eugene is very friendly and helpful. Definitely I recommend the apartment and I would stay again in my future trips to New York
Jun 27, 2019Nice quiet neighbourhood. I didn't get to meet Eugene but from the way he communicated with me throughout my stay, I can tell he's a very cool person, very helpful too. I felt at home staying here, not to mention safe. The closest subway to my knowledge is 125 st. It's a 10 mins walk, something you might want to think about if you have heavy luggage. Otherwise, it's a nice walk, passing through shops and parks. Bed is very comfortable, very quiet bedroom, and relatively spacious too. Love this place.
Jun 27, 2019My friends and I stayed at Eugene's apartment for a week, and we all like it! It is a quiet, convenient and cozy house that I'd like to recommend. In addition, Eugene and Edmond are very responsible and friendly.Great experience!
Jul 27, 2019Hôte très sympa et prévenant. Appartement propre spacieux et bien placé. Je recommande !
Jun 27, 2019Great place near Columbia. Eugene was very friendly, and the room was clean and spacious. Was familiar with the area so this wasn't an issue for us but if you're not familiar with NYC, be aware it can take anywhere from 25-50 minutes to get downtown on the subway.
Jun 27, 2019房東是一個超nice的人,把大家都當作朋友一樣,整個家也佈置的很溫馨,最喜歡的空間是客廳,一整天賴在沙發上享受陽光真的好舒服｡而且房東懂的語言很多,完全不用擔心溝通方面有問題 而且還有廚房可以使用,也可以認識其他房客,大家都是一家人的感覺很好❤️ 離兩個站走路不用十分鐘,附近的哥倫比亞大學也很美呦!
Jun 27, 2019nice place!
Jun 27, 2019Me and my girlfriend enjoyed very much to stay in your airbnb, specially with your tips for restaurants in the area. The apartment is very cozy, kitchen and living room amazing. The bedroom is also very good, incredible bed/sheets. The only attention pint is that there's only one bathroom in the apt. We didn't had any particular problems with it, but one could be surprised with a line to use the bathroom.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene is fantastic. From the first message to the arrival and throughout the stay Eugene was present and available...but not overwhelming or demanding. He set clear expectations for both of us and followed through 100%. I highly recommend Eugene's place. Very fine host. Thanks Eugene.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s is a great host, he will help you with everything, and he’s always looking for his guest to feel like home. Excellent place, very clean, and with a nice location. For sure I would pass by the next time I’m in the city.
Jun 27, 2019Good location, 10 minutes walk to subway station. Cozy and clean room.
Jun 27, 2019The apartment is cozy and the room is clean and has a comfortable bed. Eugene is always in communication, he is very kind!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene is by far the best Airbnb host I have ever met. And I’ve met many. Most don’t live up to theIr listing’s expectations. Eugene surpassed all expectations. He went above and beyond to make sure I made it to his apartment and even arranged for his co-host Edmond to help carry my luggage up to the unit. Both hosts are so kind and personable. For the first time I felt like my hosts genuinely cared about me and my contentment. It was truly refreshing to spend time with them! The bed in room 1 was very comfy and the sheets were so soft. The room was very tidy and had a raised desk with a matching IKEA stool. In addition to the breakfast-in-bed tray, there’s a hairdryer, full length mirror, and a bit of closet space and hangers. Because I was in town for dissertation research, the setup was absolutely ideal. The location is removed from the chaos of Midtown, but is only about 20-30 minutes away via subway (that is, when the trains aren’t delayed; NYC public transit’s fault entirely). Morningside Park is nearby—perfect for getting in a morning walk or run. If I could live here, I would. If I could rate 10 stars, I would. I WILL and back!
Jun 27, 2019房子干净整洁,生活用品齐全,附近有超市,厨房设备齐全超出我们预期｡多谢!
Jul 27, 2019Really good ppl, good location. Good room.. I love my staying there... Eugene is really helpful.. and always be there when you need anything ... the location is good really close to couple of subway lines... lovely staying .. will consider to stay there again ...
Jun 27, 2019Very good people and place!
Jun 27, 2019Clean and well kept place. Room is tidy and tastefully done and is very comfortable. Would highly recommend it!
Jun 27, 2019离哥伦比亚大学很近,拜访朋友很方便｡房间安静舒适,书架上有各类图书供消遣｡
Jun 27, 2019I enjoyed staying at Eugene’s place. The location was perfect, since I was visiting my daughter at Barnard. The cozy but contemporary apartment reminded me of my student days because Eugene, his roommate and the other guest would come and go and hang out in the kitchen and living room. Comfortable, clean bedroom. Try Maxx Cafe around the corner, as well as the little basement bakery a couple doors west of the apartment.
Jun 27, 2019The stay was superb from all aspects. 1. Location is very convenient. It is within 10min of walking distance to 125th st sub stations, yes both of them with train 1 and ABCD. A and D are the express trains that only stops once between the nearest station and times square. There are groceries 3min walk away. Italian, Chinese, and Sushi restaurants are right at the corner of the block as well. Oh, it takes 10-30min for most food deliveries to get to your door after ordering. There are uber drivers all over Manhattan ready for delivery. Oh, if you are here for the music school auditions.. Needless to say, you are literally living next to the school. 2. The apartment is clean and spacious. It is a newly renovated historical building. Our room is just as the pictures shown on airbnb. Shower, heater and etc. are working in great conditions so no need to worry about those.(well, considering the price, you might wonder) Oh, two bathrooms with showers come in handy. Never had to wait for anyone to use one when needed. 3. Laundry experience is beyond my expectations. Actually unlocked a whole new world for me as I used to do my own laundry living in Vancouver. The laundried clothes are usually just thrown into my clean cloth basket except for those that have to be hanged dry. But here in New York, they can pick up/delivery at your door. And they fold your clothes for you! Neat. All for a very reasonable price. 4. Eugene's hospitality is just another bonus on top of all the above experiences. Very responsible and friendly host. Overall 11/10. Would definitely return if ever getting a chance to revisit NYC. 再用中文简介下好咯, 本人加拿大留学毕业后在温哥华工作. 此行和老婆一起来纽约玩, 整体感觉非常好. 房东Eugene人很好, 有什么事情都可以商量询问. 房间所处地理位置不能算曼哈顿最繁华的地段但绝对是交通生活非常便利. 具体来熟悉了地铁线路就知道了. 房间内也很干净, 设施齐全住着很舒服. 洗衣服比想象中要方便得多, 也很便宜. 另外房东也是年轻人, 在这里住的时间内, 也有很多留学生以及五湖四海的访客, 大家都很聊得来, 晚上一起小聚畅谈也非常开心. 你也可以跟Eugene约好晚上一起体验纽约的留学生夜生活~~ (当然不能保证, 看具体他的安排咯.. 我在住期间另一个室友表示很high) 希望有机会回来纽约玩. 下次还会来这里的. 完全的满分. 有兴趣可以自己看下上半部分英文的翻译咯 更细节些 总之纽约之旅来这里你值得拥有.
Jun 27, 2019Euegene's place is awesome! Cool atmosphere, spaced rooms, great kitchen, and Eugene himself who's always more than happy to help about anything!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene is a very kind and generous host, and his place is very clean and conveniently located.
Jun 27, 2019Had a great stay! Place is clean and luxurious and in a great location!
Jun 27, 2019ﾍﾞｯﾄﾞの心地がよく､清潔感があり､とてもよい部屋でした｡Eugeneにはとても親切でﾌﾚﾝﾄﾞﾘｰな対応をしていただきました｡ 部屋の音漏れが少し気になりましたが､値段以上のお部屋でした｡
Jun 27, 2019Excelente lugar, excelente anfitrión. Si volvemos a Nueva York, repetiremos con Eugene.
Jun 27, 2019Being at Eugene's place was a real pleasure! Comunication with him was very easy and the appartment is very confortable. We spent some time at the appartment cooking and resting. It is a very good place to recover from NYC speed. Ubication is very good and well connected to move all over the city. If we would go back to NYC for sure we would repeat!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene was super accommodating. He let me check in early as the previous person had left early. He was extremely responsive. The space was clean. About a 5-10 minute walk from the Subway.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s apartment is amazing! Very good location, close to Public transport. Eugene is very kind and welcoming. Me and my sister had the best time!
Jun 27, 2019El departamento es hermoso y super completo! Aunque no nos cruzamos mucho con Eugene, nos enviaba msj para ver si necesitábamos algo. La zona es segura (por nuestra experiencia) y hay negocios a buen precio, tanto de ropa como comida. Está muy cerca de 5 líneas de subte, pudimos recorrer toda la ciudad de esta forma.
Jun 27, 2019Really nice place, good location at about 7min from the metro stop. Very neat,clean and cosy place. Eugene is a great host and he indeed deserves the superhost label! Very helpful and flexible, quick responder and friendly. I would recommend this place for anyone looking for smth affordable and not too far from midtown Manhattan.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene was such a great host you cannot ask for more! He was not only responsive, but easy to communicate & thoughtfulness: understand what we need. Besides the location is very convenient to restaurant, market & subway or bus station. Moreover, the place is very clean & nice - just across a park, so we had a wonderful time to stay there - highly recommend!
Jun 27, 2019Great place! Stay was very comfortable and location was good. Would recommend!
Jun 27, 2019This is my very first Airbnb experience and not sure what to expect. Eugene was such a wonderful host- helpful, quick to respond, easy to communicate, and very helpful and accommodating. The location is concerned too—close to Columbia University, Riverside Church, and food. I’d definitely be happy to come back. Thank you Eugene for everything!
Jul 27, 2019Amazing place. Cannot recommend enough.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s place is clean, quiet and in a good location - there’s Subway stations very close by. Eugene is a great host, extremely helpful, especially when it came to making sure my friend and I arrived in alright and could find the place once we were in Manhattan. Gave us great directions and useful information regarding transfer links. Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Eugene’s place and would reccomend.
Jun 27, 2019Really nice house. Eugene is really kind and answers immediately to text messages. Highly recommend :)
Jun 27, 2019Would recommend Eugene’s place! On the outskirts of Manhattan, but close subway access! Enjoyed our stay here and the hospitality!
Jun 27, 2019Super grosse Wohnung, grosse Küche, Aufenthaltsort grandio, bequemes Bett, schönnes Bad. Mit der Metro ist man schnell überall.
Jun 27, 2019房东是一个干净勤快的小伙子,非常nice,有礼貌,厨艺出色,家里时常保持清洁,给我们非常棒的建议,也很乐意提供帮助｡特别要赞一下厨房,各样设施一应俱全,比我家里的厨房还要出色,在他家可以满足我们的中国胃｡超市就在附近,地铁也很方便,下次来纽约还会选他家,强烈推荐!
Jun 27, 2019Very responsive and accommodating host. Great place to stay if you're visiting Columbia! One thing to note is that there is only one bathroom but it is kept very clean.
Jun 27, 2019房东超级nice,把房子打扫的很干净,可以一起愉快的聊天,还很会煮饭哦!房子的布局和结构也很令人满意,保证私人空间不被打扰的情况下,还可以很好的和房主､其他房客进行互动!房源所在的位置附近交通也很方便,出行可以选择搭乘地铁或者Ube,附近也有一些餐厅､超市､ATM等,生活很方便!很赞的房源!
Jun 27, 2019Fantastic place. Clean, hospitable, great location
Jun 27, 2019Someone else mentioned that staying with Eugene was like visiting an old friend--definitely true, the superhost title is well-deserved! The place was as described and Eugene was always willing to offer tips/suggestions for local food places and ways to get around. As someone who was new to NYC it was extremely appreciated, and the location was perfect for getting to Teacher's College easily.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene is really friendly and organized. His apartment is very cool and he will go out of his way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible.
Jun 27, 2019It was a very clean and nice-looking Apt and the location is pretty good. The host was very handsome and nice. Great experience!
Jun 27, 2019the room is very clean and very quick response from the host .
Jun 27, 2019Great place, great location
Jun 27, 2019Comfortable, well located and managed by a very accommodating host. We would stay here again!
Jun 27, 2019Very comfortable room, space is exactly as advertised. Well located close to Columbia and bus/subway. Plenty of places to eat or get coffee nearby. Eugene is a kind host.
Jun 27, 2019great hospitality, quiet, clean room, and a 10 min walk to campus.
Jun 27, 2019Excellent stay. Room was spacious and very clean and comfortable. Fast wifi. Great location, easily accessible to downtown.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene was ever so accommodating and responsive to my messages and questions. The apartment has such a stylish vibe and warm feeling - very clean too. Perfect location by the lovely Morningside Park, simple to walk to Central Park, and easy to get on the subway to get into Midtown. Thought the little directional labels in the kitchen and bathroom as well as the nightlights on the bedroom doors were nice touches. The cat is insanely adorable. Our stay here really made our time in NYC perfect.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s place is so much better that i thought! Great location, close to subway, Columbia and Riverside Park. The apartment has a great design, very nice living and bed is so comfortable! Best of all, Eugene is a great host! Really nice person!
Jun 27, 2019這裡是一個很舒適又安全的社區,離地鐵站都大約5分鐘的路程,附近有超市跟餐廳,生活機能很足夠｡鄰近哥倫比亞大學,所以很有書香氣息,謝謝Eugene還帶我們去參觀了一下哥大,後來我們常常喜歡散步經過校區去別地方,享受校園氣息｡另外還有很舒適的河濱公園,很適合在紐約繁忙的節奏下擁有緩慢的休閒空間,整體來說我覺得這裡非常棒!
Jun 27, 2019Cool place. Was my first time doing a shared Airbnb so wasn’t sure how it would play out but it was good!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s place is exactly as he described it . It a nice small room suitable for maximum of two ppl with a shared bathroom. Loved the cat :P . 5-7 min. walk from the metro station. Communication with Eugene was exceptional. He replied to all the queries and tried to help in every possible way he could.
Jun 27, 2019Eugene es un amor , la casa limpia y calentita , la cama es súper cómoda y las sabanas un gusto muy agradable , igual q las fotos todo , la ubicación inmejorable.... si tenemos q volver a New York seguro volvemos aquí .. muy recomendable!!!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene’s place was just perfect . Super clean and super stylish. And he was very prompt with his communication. Will definitely be coming back.
Jun 27, 2019I strongly recommend Eugene’s place. I enjoyed my stay. It was very easy to communicate with him—he is very understanding. I will definitely consider staying again during my next trip!
Jun 27, 2019Eugene is a very nice host, he and his Friends made us feel welcome from the first moment. There is a friendly atmosphere, Eugene is very considerate and helpful and has many useful hints and precise directions.
