Walker's Paradise according to walkscore: 100 out of 100, 100 out of 100 for transit score. Short-term *legal* rental of beautiful, *full* parlor floor with walnut-oak flooring, ten-foot Breakfast-at-Tiffany's mirrors & black Italian marble hearths, of registered landmark West (Greenwich) Village brownstone townhouse w/ lots of light, 700 sq-ft, well-furnished, elegant, warm & comfortable apt, large b/r w/ queen-sized bed, very small but complete kitchen, beautiful bathroom, exclusive/private 500 sq-foot southern, finished terrace off living room. Rent includes all taxes, utilities, electricity, insurance, incoming phone, WiFi/Internet. Check-in is 6 p.m. and check-out 3 p.m. Cleaning fees are the only other cost of your stay, one cleaning regardless of period ($99 minimum) and covers one crew cleaning surfaces + linens/laundry delivery service + inspection service (my cost is actually double yours). One additional cleaning required every three weeks of stay; no other fees, taxes or hidden charges. However, *please* note that there is a $1K security deposit. This is returned with 4% interest p.a. minus the cost of the cleaning within a week of your exit. I understand that this is not standard, but the furnishings in the apartment require it. E.g., if you stay 1 week, there is a rental fee and a $1000 deposit from which $99 will be deducted for one cleaning. For 2 weeks, the rental fee would double, but the deposit and cleaning deduction would be the same. Situated on the most beautiful, set-back, tree-lined, dynamic, super-safe block in the West or Greenwich Village. Private unlisted phone; a/c front & back; fax (outbound only); full stereo, HDTV, DVD/Blu-Ray/VCR (no cable, just broadcast TV), flat-panel PC w/ Internet via Ethernet or WiFi; nearby laundry and postal/shipping services; excellent access to Citi Bike, express/lcl subways (1-2-3-9-F-L-M), PATH trains, and Penn Sta./LIRR/AMTRAK. A minimum 4-day stay is required because of the amount of prep-work we do. While no parking provided, there is a parking garage across the street & free street parking. We are taking selective reservations through 2015 (you can reserve for 2015 w/ 100% refund for 55 days via PayPal). Thank you very much for your consideration. We value and welcome your visit. Guests from all corners of the world have been enjoying the apartment for 15 years before FlipKey started. FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (you can safely skip this section) 1. Are there more pictures? We've limited the number of pictures because we have found that it was better to put the rooms' particulars in the FlipKey 'Details' tab. There are no additional photographs to send. 2. Is there laundry in the building? There are no facilities in the building. The easiest is to either drop-off, or have picked up for free at the apartment, your laundry for wash-and-fold by Little J Cleaners. 3. Why do you charge separately for cleaning? Why not fold it into the price? The number of cleanings required varies by length of stay & the amount may vary by depth of cleaning needed. Also, the cleaning fee simply goes directly to the cleaning company & is determined by them. 4. Can I pay with a credit card? YES! You can now make a credit card payment via FlipKey; FlipKey charges us 3% and we would deduct that amount from your deposit ... or pay via PayPal, google!checkout, etc. Their fees will be charged to you and can be pretty stiff, though, up to almost 4%, unless your funds come from a linked bank account or existing balance. You can also rent through AirBnB. 5. Anything else I should know before my inquiry? Yes, one thing, and to my potential future guests, please do not be put off by this, but, please, do not ask me what the best price I can offer you is. It starts the communication off on the wrong foot. There are no negotiations about price; the accommodations are being offered at excellent rates & at my average cost (NYC is crazy expensive; check out here for a comparable hotel: Standard Hotels) ; all times & rates are fixed. Also, all information you need for price & availability is here on this site. So, please, navigate FlipKey's excellent facility, & I am hopeful we'll be able to host you for a great New York holiday!More
