Hi Guys, I spent 1 week in Madison Apt 127 in Sept. 2011. Pros: The overall price/quality/situation relations is good for NY. The apt is a 5-10 min walk to the closest subway stations & about half an hour ride to Times Square. It was clean but cold the first days. Cons: Our flight was delayed and we arrived at... More

As other have said this is a great property and represents great value. I wont lie ,the area was a little daunting when we first pulled up in the taxi and viewed the building but we had nothing to fear. We stayed in Apartment 131 on top floor so was a little bit of a challenge with our bags. Very... More

We stayed in the second floor apartment on 131st Street in November/December 2011 for 8 days. As a family of 3 adults we were pleased with the size of the apartment - the main bedroom overlooked the back garden and was very quiet however our daughter slept in the sitting room which overlooked the street and found this to be...

Chic & Budget is a good B&B but I feel it could be a great B&B with a few small changes or additions. I stayed in the large room at the 127th street location for four nights. The room is quite large and tastefully decorated. However, it would have been nice if there was an extra chair, cupboards and/or desk... More

We stayed in Apartment 132. The apartment is on the third floor, so we didn't have any issues with noise from within the apartment. The first night there was noise in the neighbourhood, but nothing out of the ordinary for a big city. The apartment itself was great. The living room was separated from the bedroom by a longish hallway.... More

Huge bedroom with heaps of space to come home to. Previous reviews some it all up. Bert is a great helpful host. Location wise: 127 St is a very accessible and... More

Okay, I was bit worried about all those uniform reviews, all saying just "place is great, Bert is nice" in unison.. its almost suspicious, isnt it? Dont worry! It is simply true.. :) We stayed in the 131st apt. Apartment is very spacious and nicely decorated. All necessary accessories (iron, hair dryer, microwave, fridge etc etc) are in place and... More

Stayed in Garden apartment on 131st street for over a week at end of Sept 2011. Room was clean, bed very comfy, bathroom clean, good TV, kitchen well equipped, quiet nights overall. Mildly annoying points; could hear footsteps from people above pretty clearly - but only a problem if they come 'home' after you've gone to bed, internal doors don't... More

Thank you for taking the time to comment on your experience. The wooden floors in these houses are one of the features that guests love. However, some footsteps can be heard on the floor immediately beneath. Wi-fi is not available at this location and this has been indicated in our list of amenities. There are public networks which guests are... More
