Amazing experience!
July 7, 2025I lived there for nine months in a private single room. The staff were very welcoming, and the location was ideal. The shared kitchen became a lively social spot for hours-long communal dinners and engaging conversations with people from all over the world. I've made lifelong friends here and am extremely thankful for the experience.Review from Apartments.com
Ideal for New Yorkers on the Move
July 2, 2025Their flexible leases are a dream for short-term stays, and the apartments are clean and comfortable. I stayed for three months and loved the community vibe—it’s such a great way to meet people in a new city while avoiding the chaos of sublets.Review from Apartments.com
Highly recommend it!
July 2, 2025I was worried about moving into a shared space, but this house has been a dream. My roommates are great, the building is quiet, and management is super responsive.Review from Apartments.com
Clean Kitchen, Smooth MoveIn
June 19, 2025Moving to NYC for a new restaurant job was stressful, especially when I kept finding overpriced apartments that didn’t even meet basic standards. Owens House was a breath of fresh air. The kitchen was clean and well-equipped, which is a big deal for someone like me who’s picky about cooking spaces. The whole experience was seamless, and I even got to share recipes with my roommates.Review from Apartments.com
Helped Me Find My People
June 4, 2025The transition to New York City was overwhelming, but Owens House made it easier. I love the diversity of the people living here—creative professionals, entrepreneurs, and students all coming together. The best part was definitely the communal kitchen. I’ve made countless new friends over meals, and as a chef, it felt great to share my passion for cooking with others. From spontaneous pasta nights to organized potlucks, this place turned into a home.Review from Apartments.com
I ended up staying a lot longer than I originally planned.
May 27, 2025As an intern in NYC, I was trying to navigate a challenging industry, and having a place where I could retreat to after a long day—filled with supportive, like-minded people—made all the difference. The location in Brooklyn felt far enough from the chaos of Manhattan but still close enough to enjoy everything the city had to offer. I ended up staying a lot longer than I originally planned.Review from Apartments.com
Such a wonderful place
April 23, 2025This house wasn’t just a place to live; it became my support system. I remember when I had a bad day at work, and one of my housemates surprised me with tea and cookies. Moments like that remind you that community living isn’t just about sharing a space; it’s about sharing life. Outpost Club gets it right by creating an environment where kindness and camaraderie thrive.Review from Apartments.com
A Stress-Free Stay
April 3, 2025I travel for work and needed a short-term, hassle-free solution. Outpost Club hit the mark. The WiFi was reliable, which was a dealbreaker for me, and the atmosphere was surprisingly calm despite the shared living setup. This house had this vibe that made winding down after work easy—whether that was chatting with housemates in the kitchen or finding a quiet nook to read. For anyone on the go, this is a lifesaver.Review from Apartments.com
Good furnished room
March 12, 2025The NYC apartment market nearly drove me insane. Every listing felt like a scam, and I couldn’t imagine paying a broker’s fee on top of everything else. Owens House was a game-changer. I booked a room online, and everything was exactly as advertised. Clean rooms, friendly roommates, and solid privacy—it felt more like a home than just another rental.Review from Apartments.com
Apartment had everything I needed
February 11, 2025As a grad student new to NYC, I didn’t know where to start. I tried sharing an apartment with friends, but coordinating schedules and lease agreements was a nightmare. This coliving house saved me so much stress. The application process was simple, and the apartment had everything I needed, including reliable Wi-Fi and a desk for studying. I even appreciated the regular cleanings—something my old roommates never cared about.Review from Apartments.com
Owens House was exactly what I needed during my transition to New York City.
January 16, 2025The room was cozy, the amenities were top-notch, and most importantly, I felt like I was part of something meaningful. I loved the chance to meet people from all over the world, many of whom shared my values about social change. I’m an introvert, but I felt completely at home here. The shared spaces made it easy to socialize when I wanted to, and retreat when I needed some alone time.Review from Apartments.com
Solid Choice
November 19, 2024I recently stayed at The Owens House and couldn’t be happier with my choice! The room was spacious, and having a private bathroom made it feel extra comfortable. The building had a mix of modern features and charming details, plus some great shared spaces like a backyard and rooftop to relax. The location was convenient for getting around Brooklyn and Manhattan, and there were plenty of parks, coffee shops, and unique dining spots nearby. Overall, it was a fantastic value for the price!Review from Apartments.com
