Café Greenery is unlike any apartment you've stayed in. A dramatic hanging plant installation — a cascading garden of ferns, pothos, and trailing vines suspended over the kitchen bar — sets the tone the moment you walk in. Pair that with a statement star-tile island, exposed brick, industrial copper bar stools, and a "But First, Coffee" neon sign, and you've got a space that feels more like a curated café than a short-term rental.
The primary bedroom features a full NYC skyline mural flanked by wood slat panels, a custom floating walnut headboard, and a burnt-orange knit throw. The second bedroom has its own bold personality — a large-format abstract art mural behind the bed and a striking orange accent wall. Both rooms have mini-split A/C for individual climate control.
There's a Victrola record player with vinyl collection in the living room, an industrial-chic bathroom with pipe shelving and Statue of Liberty decor, and a white subway tile kitchen with gold hardware fully stocked for cooking. Bergen-Lafayette is one of JC's most up-and-coming neighborhoods — steps from great restaurants, cafes, and the Liberty State Park waterfront.

We had a phenomenal stay! The apartment was so clean and well appointed. Everything was top quality from the linens to the kitchenware, and we could tell that a great deal of thought and care went into the design of the place. My daughters and I would definitely stay again if we were ever visiting the area. We didn't want to leave!
★★★★★
They are really helpful and professional. I’ll definitely return for the next time
★★★★★
We recently had the pleasure of staying at Cafe Greenery and it exceeded all our expectations. Zara, the host, was incredibly hospitable and responsive. They provided clear instructions for check-in and were available for any questions or concerns throughout the stay. Every room was tidy. Overall, we had a fantastic experience and would highly recommend this Airbnb to anyone looking for a great place to stay in Jersey City.
★★★★★
Loved Zara’s place! Super clean and cozy, as well as being close to NYC and train stations. Would definitely recommend and if you’re a coffee lover like me, you will love it here!
★★★★☆
Location was not good. There was a problem of parking always.
I got ticket also
★★★★★
Sehr schöne Wohnung und stilvoll eingerichtet. Sehr zu empfehlen, sowohl für kurz- wie auch langfristige Aufenthalte.
★★★★★
Nous avons apprécié notre séjour. Tout était parfait! Les propriétaires ont répondu à nos questions rapidement. Merci beaucoup!
★★★★★
Zara has a beautiful/comfortable apartment and is a great host! The coffee and tea are an awesome touch. I definitely would stay again.
★★★★☆
Place was very beautiful and compact. Zara was a great host!
Pros
1. House was very clean and as described.
2. Host was very responsive and made sure you are comfortable. Provided things in need like coffee, toiletries, all seasoning, and eveything needed to cook and bake.
3. No elevator but it's just a floor to climb.
Cons:
1. Parking rules are different for locals vs others. Would have saved me a parking ticket of 50$ if more details were provided by the host.
2. Surrounding areas felt shady during the night.
★★★★★
Nous avons passé un bon séjour chez Zara. La communication avec l’hôte est facile et bien organisée. L’appartement est confortable et bien équipé.
Situé à quelques minutes du PATH, il est facile de se rendre sur Manhattan.
Zara s’est montrée très disponible pour répondre à nos questions., ce qui a été très apprécié!
★★★★★
Place was amazing, wonderful apartment and great instructions from the host.
★★★★★
A relatively easy UberXL to the nearest PATH station, and from there super fast into the city. For our group it worked well and we appreciated Zara’s immediate responsiveness when we needed help reconnecting internet/sorting out an item or two for the house. Thanks!
★★★★★
This is a very amazing experience here and good communication with Zara. The rooms are cozy and well decorated with nice pictures, plants, and also nice coffee. My family loves this place very much.
★★★★★
unter den bisherigen Airbnb - Unterkünften war diese die einzige, die eine Küche mit genügend Pfannen, Kochbesteck etc. und v.a. Gewürzen (Salz, Paprika & allen Arten von Kräutern etc. ) ausgerüstet ist.
Die Wohnung hatte einen echten NY Stil.
Ansonsten: genügend Bettwäsche, Kissen etc..
gerne wieder!
★★★★☆
We absolutely loved staying at Zara’s place! The place was exactly as pictured and felt super cozy and clean. You can tell it’s very well cared for.
We had some trouble getting into the unit, which was slightly inconvenient because we had been walking in the city all day. However, Zara was super responsive and let us in as quickly as she could, even though it was pretty late at night on one occasion.
Zara’s place was fully stocked, but I did wish the coffee-themed unit had some cream for the coffee! I would also suggest bringing a small pre-lit mirror if you’re a make up girly, because I struggled a bit to find good getting-ready lighting in this moody space. (But I loved the vibe for everything else!)
If you’re planning on spending your time in the city, there are probably more convenient places to stay, but you can’t beat the price and aesthetics of Zara’s gorgeous space! 🌟

abbiamo scelto questo Airbnb per visitare New York. la vista della città di Manhattan da jersey City e' favolosa. per raggiungere il world trader center occorrono mediamente 20/30 Min ed occorre cambiare due mezzi.Zara è stata molto cortese e si è resa subito disponibile a risolvere qualche piccolo problema che avevamo avuto. host consigliato e ottima soluzione per chi deve affrontare un viaggio a new York e è una famiglia numerosa. noi eravamo in cinque e siamo stati bene
★★★★★
Ganz tolle Wohnung. Sehr gut an die öffentlichen Verkehrsmittel angebunden. Man ist innerhalb kurzer Zeit in Manhattan
Wir können die Unterkunft nur weiter empfehlen
Sehr angenehm in die ruhige Gegend zurückzukehren nach einem langen Tag in der Stadt 🏙️ Die Unterkunft ist genau wie auf den Bildern zu sehen. Super netter Kontakt mit der Gastgeberin. Danke für den schönen Aufenthalt 🥰
★★★★☆
Sehr schönes Appartment mit guter Möglichkeit NYC zu erreichen.
★★★★★
Great place to stay in Jersey City.
★★★★★
El alojamiento es muy acuado. Jemos estado muy cómodos. Lo que más me ha gustado ha sido su flexibilidad
★★★★★
We loved staying at the apartment. It was very comfortable, especially the beds. Zara was super helpful and got back to us very quickly, especially when we managed to lock ourselves out of the apartment! It was close to the HBLR, which connects with the PATH so convenient to get into Manhattan. It had a great little kitchen area and a decent sized living room. So much nicer than staying in a hotel.
★★★★★
Super appartement fidèle à la description.
Zara est extrêmement réactive à tous les besoins.
Quartier populaire voire pauvre mais calme avec un voisinage extrêmement gentil.
J’ai trouvé le coin et les gens très attachants car typiquement américain et à l’opposé du chic de Manhattan.
Très agréable après une journée d’agitation de rentrer sur Jersey City, ville très calme qui permet de rejoindre NYC très facilement en 20 min et l’aéroport de Nuwark pour la même durée.
Je reviendrais avec plaisir.
Merci infiniment pour nous avoir proposé un séjour sans encombre.
★★★★★
Dejlig lejlighed med skøn indretning, vi nød at komme hjem efter dagens udflugter. God placering i forhold til transport, med mange muligheder for at besøge NYC. Vi kan klart anbefale stedet
★★★★★
Fantastic stay while we ran the NYC Marathon. It is about a $10 Uber to grove street PATH station, which brings you right to World Trade Center. The decor was cozy and the space accommodates four people nicely. No complaints. They really did the most with the space provided. We recommend for a city-like apartment experience.
★★★★★
Zara was super helpful and really went above and beyond in helping us check in, get the most out of our stay, and making sure that all was going smoothly before, during and after our arrival.
The house is modern, beautiful, clean and has a well stocked kitchen. I would highly recommend anyone put this place right at the top of their list if they are looking to stay in the area.
★★★★★
Muy limpio el lugar y bonito el departamento. Buena atención del anfitrión, barrio tranquilo.
★★★★★
Zara was great host, place was very clean and pretty, just as described. We had a great time visiting NYC.
Thanks for everything Zara!
★★★★★
We had a grear stay at Zara’s apartment to visit NJ and Manhattan. Beautiful and clean apartment. Had everything we needed. A little far to the path train but with Uber we couldn’t really feel that.
★★★★★
Everything was perfect. We will definitely be back.
★★★★★
we loved the stay, the price compared to staying in Manhattan was amazing. If you have no issue using public transportation the commute can be quiet reasonable,if you plan to Uber to Manhanttan check the prices and commute timed before you go, it was a bit shocking. We loved the Jersey side of town near Grove St Station. Zara was very helpful and accomdating during our stay, would go back for sure.
★★★★★
选择这个房源的主要原因有2个,一是靠近大桥,去曼哈顿比较方便,二是装饰非常漂亮,提供丰富的厨房用品和咖啡。事实确实如此,入住后我们发现它离新泽西轻轨很近,这成了我们每天出行的主要选择。意外的是附近还有一家非常好的大超市,可以买到各种美味的食材,包括几乎所有的肉类和海鲜,甚至有亚洲调味料和方便面。房子装饰得非常漂亮温馨,打扫得也非常干净。虽然比照片上看起来的面积小一点,但3个人住完全够用了。咖啡很美味,厨房调味品也很丰富,对于喜欢自己做饭的人非常方便。床很舒服,被子也暖和。
整个沟通过程基本顺利,入住后Zara反应及时,及时补充缺少的东西,根据要求给予详细的指引。但入住前的沟通有时候没有回应。入住和退房说明非常详尽,但免责通知有些生硬,感觉非常专业,但有点公事公办的味道。
总体上这是一次非常满意的入住,我推荐。
★★★★☆
Zara Was A Great Host, If You Love The Space Then You’ll Have No Complaints. Great Job
★★★★★
Lovely place, very convenient to get back and forth to NYC. The neighborhood felt questionable but everyone we ran into was very friendly. Parking was a challenge but the extra recommendations to find a spot were very helpful.
★★★★★
Great place to stay that’s close to Manhattan and New Jersey. You can ferry from Liberty State Park just a couple miles away! Inside the AirBnB was amazingly cozy and the heaters worked great!
★★★★★
Great hospitality from a great owner, thnk you Zara..
★★★★★
It was the peaceful great away I needed with my family. Would airbnb again!
★★★★☆
Die Wohnung ist toll für ein Paar plus eine Person. Wir waren zu viert, dafür ist es etwas klein, b.z.w. die Betten nicht geeignet. Es gibt keinen Tisch zum Essen und keine Salatschüssel, ansonsten war es alles ganz wie auf den Bildern. Die Betten waren SEHR bequem und die Lage ruhig. Das Bad, i.e. Badewanne und Dusche sowie Duschvorhang kann mal renoviert werden. Wir hatten eine Auto vor Ort, das war gut.
★★★★★
Zara and her Husband were great hosts, they were very proactive and responded in seconds. Almost like they were waiting on our messages. Space is very beautiful, very clean and very modern… Zara left clear and concise instructions on how to navigate during our stay. Although we had a bit of issue with the door, she made sure to prioritize our safety. An overall great experience. Would be coming back!
★★★★★
The place was very beautiful and there were a lot of amenities.
★★★★★
Our stay was great. Overall we enjoyed the airbnb. Thank you Zara for all your communications to us. Thank you for hosting us at your airbnb.
★★★★★
My Friends and I loved staying with Zara for the Spring Break. Not only was she Super Responsive to all our Communications, She even helped us figure decent restaurants in the Area through the Flippable Book left for us on the Kitchen Table.
and can I say what a Chic Atmosphere! Gorgeous Designing, and The Bathroom is full of Amenities! Loved Everything about the Place, and I couldn't recommend it enough for First-Timers planning to explore NYC
★★★★★
Place was great. Host was nice and responsive. Will stay again.
★★★★★
We had an excellent stay at Zara’s Airbnb in New Jersey. The apartment was spacious and comfortable, perfectly accommodating our group of five. It felt familiar and welcoming, with a great ambience that made us feel at home. The host was available throughout the entire week we stayed, always responsive and ready to assist, which made our experience even better. Overall, the apartment looks and feels fantastic, and we highly recommend it for anyone visiting the area.
★★★★★
great, responsive host!
★★★★☆
We had a very comfortable stay at the apartment. The master bed was particularly comfortable for sleeping.
The kitchen was well equipped and easy to navigate. It was easy to get to a bus and a train to take you to Central Manhattan.
It would be helpful to have some mirrors in the bedrooms.
★★★★★
El departamento esta muy fácil de encontrar, el lugar es súper cómodo y limpio, te hace sentir como en casa
★★★★★
Very quiet place. Good sleep and clean house. Easy to find parking at night.
★★★★★
Overall a good place to stay, highly recommend this place

It is one of the best apartments I have ever stayed. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy place to stay in Jersey City, away from the hustle and bustle of Manhattan.
Zara was a great host and was super responsive to my request. Thank you so much for having me !
★★★★★
Zara’s place is beautiful and cozy! A great stay away from home and great price. Instructions were super clear and also she is very empathetic and understanding to the needs of my family during our stay. Would highly recommend to anyone whether you’re visiting Jersey or NY like I was initially. Easy access and great distance to where I needed to be in Manhattan. Thank you Zara for your hospitality

★★★★★
Place is clean and easy to access.
★★★★★
Zara was a great host. Has been very responsive and helpful from the first moment I booked.
Place was very clean and comfortable. We felt quite at home.
Also masterbedroom has an enormous bed. This doesn’t reflect on the pictures, we were quite surprised. Which was ideal with a small child. Lots of space. We had comfortable nights, which is very important.
Super clean rooms, bathrooms, kitchen and livingroom. Kitchen has also everything you need. Overall we were glad we stayed at Zara’s place. Definitely recommend!
I just missed some extra shelves in de bedroom for storing products especially when sharing with 3.
Happy we stayed at Zara’s place. Thank you for everything Zara. Will rebook if ever we come back.
★★★★★
Easy to find, darling, clean and secure apartment in Jersey City, with full amenities (kitchen, laundry, WiFi, TV, parking).
★★★★★
We had a wonderful stay at Zara’s! The unit was extremely clean, well decorated and warm and inviting just like the photos. The beds were comfortable, and we enjoyed that there were ac units in both bedrooms, as well as the living room. We knew parking would be a challenge in the evening, so we did have to park up the street as per her recommendations and had no issues. We would absolutely stay again!
★★★★★
Foi tudo ótimo. O ap é muito arrumado e bem decorado. A Zara é uma excelente anfitriã. Sempre disposta a ajudar nas dicas de locomoção aos pontos turísticos de NY. Adoramos
★★★★☆
We had a great stay at this apartment! The place was clean, comfortable, and exactly as described. The only downside was that there’s no private parking available, so you have to find street parking or a nearby lot on your own. Other than that, everything was fine and we really enjoyed our stay!
★★★★★
This accommodation is excellent, with a kind and welcoming host. The apartment is beautifully decorated and well-equipped with most of the essential amenities for both short- and long-term stays, including cooking facilities. However, it would be more convenient if additional slippers and a washing machine were provided for guests.
★★★★★
Thank you Zara ! For sure I will be coming back again
★★★★★
The place looked just like the photos. Everything was very clean and stylish. My family and I had a great stay. Zara was very responsive and helpful.
★★★★★
Great Stay. Very Close to NYC. Overall we felt great during our stay!
★★★★★
Zara was extremely responsive when we have questions or concerns. She was extremely hospitable and her place was beautiful. I absolutely plan on booking with her again in the future!
★★★★★
Home like stay. Very responsive host. Cozy place. It looks kind of old from outside but interior of house has no comparison with exterior. It is modern and well equipped.
★★★★★
I enjoyed my stay at Cafe Greenery ! It was like my home away from home. The light Rail
was within walking distance.Bus lines are approximately 1-2 blocks away. We were in close proximity to LSP(Liberty State Park)
, and 20 min from NYC. I would use this Airbnb again and again.
★★★★★
Estuvimos muy a gusto en el apartamento de Zara. Ella siempre estuvo en contacto con nosotros. El vecindario muy tranquilo, supermercado y estación de tren a unos minutos caminando. 👍
★★★★★
Beautiful and charming apartment in Jersey City. super clean and stylish, great host and excellent communication. Highly recommended!
★★★★★
Nice home close to a lot of things to do nearby.
★★★★★
Great stay! Neighbor was quiet at night. Nearby ferry and light rail to access manhattan. It was such a great experience!
★★★★★
We loved it! It was clean and beautifully decorated. We enjoyed our stay and will be back!
★★★★★
We hebben een onvergetelijke citytrip naar New York gemaakt en genoten van een comfortabel verblijf in dit appartement in Jersey City. Om in het centrum van New York te geraken, gebruikten we de MBLR light rail (nabijgelegen halte: Garfield Avenue) en vervolgens de PATH-trein naar Manhattan. De communicatie met Zara ging vlot en snel. Het appartement was netjes, voldoende ruim en goed ingericht. Geen storend lawaai van de buren. Goed werkende airco. De enige suggestie die we aan Zara gegeven hebben, is om een extra tafeltje met stoelen in de keuken bij te plaatsen. Over het algemeen kunnen we dit appartement warm aanbevelen aan iedereen die een reis naar New York plant.
★★★★★
Great place and exactly as described. Thanks for hosting me
★★★★★
Zara ist eine tolle Gastgeberin und wir haben uns in ihrer Wohnung von Anfang zu Hause gefühlt. Wir hatten alles, was wir brauchten und es gab sogar Kaffee, Seife, Duschbad und Shampoo, Haushalts- und Toilettenpapier. Ein prima Supermarkt ist gleich um die Ecke (Extra Supermarket auf Kearney Ave). Der Bus zur U-Bahn (81L oder 6) fuhr nicht immer regelmäßig, hier ein bisschen Zeit einplanen oder Google Maps befragen. Uber geht natürlich auch :-)
Im Bus waren wir meist die einzigen hellhäutigen Passagiere, aber das hat uns überhaupt nicht gestört. Die direkte Umgebung ist zwar z.T. recht schlicht und ein paar Häuser müssten dringend mal renoviert werden, aber wir haben uns immer sicher gefühlt und die Menschen als freundlich und hilfsbereit erlebt.
Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis geht aus unserer Sicht für die relative Nähe zu Manhatten voll in Ordnung, der ÖPNV ist sehr preiswert und wir würden definitiv nochmal bei Zara wohnen.
★★★★★
Great place. Cozy and clean and neat. Enjoyed it.
★★★★★
We had a great stay at Zara’s place. We were two couples visiting NYC and found the apartment comfortable and well-equipped for simple breakfasts and relaxing after long days out. Transit was easy — bus, Light Rail, and PATH stops are all within walking distance, and there’s a big grocery store nearby. Commuting to Manhattan takes some time but is still much cheaper than staying in the city.
The neighborhood felt safe, the building was quiet at night, and the heating worked very well. Zara was very responsive — when we had a lock issue late at night, it was handled immediately.
Just a note: there’s no dining table (which we knew beforehand), and the mattress in the smaller bedroom is extremely soft memory foam - some may love it, others maybe not. :)
★★★★★
Great place! Definitely recommend if going to visit New York
★★★★★
Zara is a great host! The pictures match the listing, was fresh and clean and the beds were very nice.
★★★★★
We had a great stay here! The apartment was so cute and perfect for the amount of people we had!
Parking was a bit challenging but we got it all figured out. Enjoyed our stay here!
★★★★☆
Zara was an excellent host. She was very attentive and checked in with us several times throughout our stay. She communicated quickly when questions arose. Overall the apartment was nice, but quite small for 4 adults. The beds were comfortable, but the sofa bed was hard. The kitchen/dining area was very small and needed a few more dishes. It was a short walk to the light rail station and grocery store. The apartment worked fine for what we needed. We enjoyed our stay as we visited NYC. Thank you, Zara.
★★★★★
We had a really nice 10-day stay here during our trip to New York. The apartment is located in a quiet, peaceful area, yet very conveniently connected (less than a 5-minute walk to a bus stop that takes you to the PATH for an easy ride into Manhattan, and right next to a well-stocked supermarket).
The place is as shown in the photos, clean, cosy, and tastefully decorated. It truly feels like home. The bedding is especially comfortable, which we really appreciated after long days exploring the city!
Zara is a proactive and friendly host, always helpful and full of great advice.
Thank you again for a lovely stay, we would definitely recommend this place.
★★★★★
Great place ..will visit again
★★★★★
Muy bonito lugar, muy limpio y muy organizado, excelente ala hora de comunicarse con el anfitrión
★★★★★
Loved staying at Zara’s! She was friendly and always responsive when I had questions. The beds in the airbnb were absolutely amazing and I’ve had one of the best sleeps there. Definitely would recommend!
★★★★☆
Zara was extremely professional & responsive. She recommended multiple places for good eats. I loved staying there it felt right at home and i loved seeing a place that actually looks like the photos! Easy access and no troubles checking in, the only downside was the parking. The area is a bit rough.
★★★★★
Zara's place was very cozy and at a great location, the sunrise view from the bedrooms were immaculate, would definitely recommend this place to others.
★★★★☆
Nice and cozy. And true to the pictures. Parking was really difficult though. And made the experience a bit frustrating since it was so cold out. But that’s not really on the host.
★★★★★
This was an amazing stay and experience. Super cozy and nice- I would definitely reccomend to everyone 😊
★★★★★
Zara was an amazing host! She was very responsive, accommodating and welcoming. Loved my stay at Cafe Greenery 😊
★★★★★
Favorite new spot to stay at in Jersey! Transportation very close to get to New York. Very clean home and Zara is very communicative with me and helpful.
★★★★☆
I enjoyed my stay at Zara’s place overall. She was pleasant and communicative throughout my visit.
There were a few issues during my stay that I brought to her attention. While they weren’t resolved before check-out, she acknowledged them and offered a small compensation as a gesture of goodwill.
With a bit more attention to maintenance and cleaning details prior to guest arrival, this could be an even better experience. Thank you again for hosting.
★★★★★
Exactly like the photos! Extremely comfortable king size bed. My husband & I were very happy with the ample hot water in the shower and water pressure, too. Everything was spotless, even the inside of the fridge! Plenty of closet space. It’s nice to have such choice on the heat & air circulation down to each room, too. Parking is tough depending on what time, but we knew that heading into the trip and especially after the week prior’s huge snowstorm. We really enjoyed the space & appreciated Zara’s detailed communication. We would stay here again!
★★★★★
We had an absolutely fantastic stay at Zara’s Airbnb in New Jersey! The apartment was spotless, had everything we needed and Sarah was super responsive whenever we reached out. She even provided an extra blanket and ensured we had plenty of clean towels. The apartment was beautiful and the location amazing! The supermarket was within walking distance and the train station to exchange place as well, where we could take the PATH train to Manhattan. It was really easy to get to New York City. We would definitely book again with Zara and would come back! Thank you so much for making the stay perfect! :-)
★★★★★
步行就有超市、路面電車可搭,房源非常乾淨、有設計感,廚房設備也很齊全,最棒的是床好好睡😊😊
★★★★★
This was a cute 2 bedroom. Very quiet and comfortable. Zara was great to work with also. The only challenge was parking as it is in most cases in Jersey City, but Zara warned us ahead of time. We will definitely stay here again when we visit.
★★★★★
We loved our stay at this Airbnb! It worked perfectly for our NYC trip and we found it easy to get to our destinations with public transportation.
★★★★★
Zara is a very good host and the house was in good condition, the transportation is also good, easy to get around. I recommend.
★★★★★
I stayed at Zara’s place with my parents, and we had an absolutely amazing experience. The home was very clean, cozy, and exactly as described. It had a cute and thoughtful setup, with lovely accessories that made the space feel warm and welcoming.
Zara was very responsive, helpful, and made sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay. After just the first day, the place started to feel like home. We really enjoyed our time there and would definitely book this place again if we have the opportunity.
