Excellent value

This place is amazing. We loved the neighborhood, comfy beds, and open living room/kitchen. Trains were not noisy, and rooftop was sweet (though we did have a rainy week, so couldn't use it a lot). 40 min drive or 60mins transit into Midtown, or a bit less to WTC area. Hosts are awesome, generous, and very responsive.

Great Rooftop View

We stayed at this property for one night and we enjoyed our stay. Upon check in, we were greeted with sweets from the Host and the place was clean. Not as big as we thought it would’ve been but it worked out. The rooftop view was amazing and hanging out on the roof was fun. The neighborhood is in a little sketchy area but the property itself is newly renovated. Although it was a short stay, we enjoyed the stay. The Host was very friendly and responded very promptly.

Amazing Stay – Perfect Location & Thoughtful Host!We had an amazing stay at this VRBO! The location was perfect for our trip—just a quick ride to the ferry, which made getting into NYC and Brooklyn super convenient. The ferry ride itself was incredible and really added to the experience.The home was spotless, quiet, and fully stocked with everything we needed. Having a designated parking space in the driveway was a huge plus. Our group of seven was very comfortable here. We especially enjoyed relaxing on the cozy TV sectional after long days of sightseeing, and the rooftop deck offered beautiful views of the NYC skyline while sipping on the delicious coffee pods they provided.Overall, the hosts were extremely responsive and thoughtful—they even left us a delicious box of donuts to welcome us! Great area, great experience—we would definitely stay here again.

Beautiful property, clean, and plenty of room for the 8 of us. The washer and dryer was broken which made it difficult as we found out our cruise was being re-routed from Bermuda to Canada because of a hurricane & we needed to wash our warm clothes we had worn in NYC. Because of pre-planned activities we did not have time to go to the laundromat. The property owner did give us a small refund after I requested it. The neighborhood was a little rough, but these rental properties were beautiful.

Hi, I’m Faisal!

I’m all about creating unforgettable stays that feel like a perfect mix of comfort and style. When I’m not hosting, you’ll find me hunting for the best coffee spots, exploring scenic trails, or tinkering with my motorcycle (not quite a mechanic, but I give it my best shot!).

My goal is to make your visit seamless, memorable, and tailored to your needs. Let me know how I can make your stay extra special – I’m here to help!

Why they chose this property

I chose the Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood because it offers the best of both worlds: easy access to New York City while maintaining a more relaxed and welcoming vibe. Its location is ideal for anyone looking to explore the energy and excitement of NYC, with just a short commute to Manhattan. At the same time, you can return to a neighborhood that feels like a retreat, away from the constant buzz of the city.

What I enjoy most about Bergen-Lafayette is how it blends urban convenience with a community-oriented atmosphere. Whether it’s grabbing a coffee at a local café, enjoying the vibrant arts scene, or relaxing in one of the nearby parks, there’s always something to do without the pressure of city crowds. It’s a perfect spot for visitors who want to be close to NYC but still experience the charm and creativity of a distinct and thriving community.

What makes this property unique

What makes my property unique is its combination of modern design, spacious interiors, and unbeatable amenities that make it stand out from the rest. Built in 2024, this brand-new property features contemporary finishes and thoughtful touches to ensure comfort and style for every guest.

One of the highlights is the private rooftop, offering stunning views and a perfect space to unwind, whether you're sipping your morning coffee, soaking in the sunset, or enjoying the city lights. The spacious layout ensures plenty of room to relax, work, or entertain—ideal for travelers seeking a premium stay.

Beyond the property itself, the location is a dream for visitors. Being just a short distance from NYC, it’s perfect for exploring the energy of Manhattan while coming back to a peaceful retreat. Combined with the charm of the Bergen-Lafayette neighborhood’s arts scene, local dining, and parks, this property offers a unique and unforgettable experience for every guest.
