Entry Instructions:
For the FRONT DOOR:

The entrance door is next to Kung Fu Tea it is a red door.

Our key is in the bottom lockbox along the door frame. Only take this key out to open the front door then put it back in the lockbox do not take the key with you.

To open this lockbox

-Pull down the black covering

-Enter the code 8947

-Twist the top button to unlock position

-Pull the door out

-In this lockbox you will find the main building front door key  

-Due to numerous key losses you MUST keep this key in the lockbox DO NOT TAKE THIS KEY WITH YOU. Once you have unlocked the front door for yourself put the key back in the lockbox. If this key gets lost there will be a large penalty since we would need to change the locks and replace all tenants of the buildings keys.

To close the lockbox you may need to enter the code again, close the door then once the door is closed twist the lock and scramble the numbers.

Please try to refrain from overuse of the locks by locking and unlocking from the inside multiple times as this can drain the battery very fast. If by chance the batteries die on the apartment door lock there are replacement batteries in one of the kitchen drawers. 

Hallways/Common Areas:
Hoboken does not allow elevators in buildings built before 2005, so it is common that most places in Hoboken you need to walk up stairs. This penthouse apartment is on the 5th floor which is 4 flights of stairs up. While you are in the hallways please be mindful that you are passing by residents’ homes and they would appreciate your respect and quiet behaviors.

Towels/Linens:
Yes, we provide towels and linens. We will leave enough out for you and have extras available upon request. In this apartment you find extra sheets, towels, and quilts inside the large bedroom closet. There will also be an extra set of sheets and pillows inside the couch storage for the sleeper sofa.

Supplies:
We will provide basic starter supplies, for example toilet paper, coffee pods, sugars, teas, napkins, soaps, and washer pods for the first few days of your stay. If you are coming for a longer stay and need more than what we provide at some point, we ask that you bring it with you or pick up items that are important to you. There is a convenience store right downstairs next to the coffee shop. You might also notice that in our bathrooms there are some hygiene products like hair sprays or perfumes which we call “communal products” that guests have left behind for other future guests.

Wi-Fi:
The Wi-Fi login is sent to you with your check-in instructions, but you can also find it in the guidebook inside the apartment as well as underneath the router. If the Wi-Fi ever gets disconnected, please unplug the router located under the desk, wait 5 minutes, plug it back in and try again. If it is still out there may be an outage with the company. Please text me if this happens.

Toilets:
We have strong toilets but please do not ever flush sanitary products or other items not meant for a toilet.

Air Conditioners & Heaters:
For Washington Penthouse there is a thermostat near the apartment door. Please do not select the ‘fan on’ mode since this will blow continuously and not create a comfortable temperature. In the summer the setting should be on ‘cool’ and in the winter the setting should be on ‘heat’ preferably at a comfortable temperature of 68F degrees.

Pull Out Couches:
The living room has a couch that will pull out into a sleeper bed.
1. Move the coffee table over.
2. Pull the bottom of the couch out - then up.
The chase is also a storage area for extra linens -  just pull this piece up.

Bunk Bed:
There are certain risks associated with using a bunk bed and bunk bed ladder, and guests agree that use is at your own risk. Property owner assumes no responsibility for personal loss, injury, or illness of any kind which may result from use of the bunk bed and ladder. The owners are not liable for any accidents occurring. Parents with children should be especially cautioned regarding ladder use and agree to accept all responsibility for minors. While not an exhaustive list of precautions, guests agree to follow these industry standards: 1) Use of top bunk is limited to occupants 6 years or older; 2) Use of top bunk is limited to 1 occupant and a maximum 175 lb weight; 3) No jumping or other horseplay on or around the bed; 4) Always use ladder for entering and leaving the upper bunk. There will be a $800.00 charge for any damages specifically to the bunk beds due to the guests negligence.

Parking:
There is no parking included with our property.

I recommend the Park Mobile App for more details.
If you plan to visit NYC during your stay our suggestion is to leave your car in a parking lot and use public transportation to get around since finding parking spots especially in NYC can get frustrating.

Before leaving:
Put dirty dishes in the dishwasher & turn it on.
Put dirty sheets and towels in the washer and turn it on but do not overload the machine. Comforters and quilts are sent out for professional washing. (washer pods are near the washer)
Do not leave any food/beverages in the fridge or inside the apartment please dispose of all perishable items.
Put the trash in a black garbage bag (under the kitchen sink) and place the garbage bag out on the street curb.
Please turn off the lights and air conditioners before leaving.
The front door key must be in the lockbox when you check out. If the key is missing there could be large fees due from you because the locks will need to be changed for all the apartments inside the building and would be an emergency locksmith call.
