Amazing experience!
I 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.

Ideal for New Yorkers on the Move
Their 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.

Highly recommend it!
I 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.

Clean Kitchen, Smooth MoveIn
Moving 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.

Helped Me Find My People
The 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.
