Michelle was an outstanding host! She was really nice, kind, friendly and respectful of my privacy throughout the whole stay at her place. The apartment is fully equipped for whatever need, and the bedroom is large enough and well furnished. When a particular issue occurred, Michelle's priority was to fix it (for example, the hair dryer broke and she immediately bought a new one). Toby, her dog, is nice but logically requires his time to get acquainted to the new host. He doesn't bother if leave alone, but longer stays could allow even to build a good relationship with him. Despite all the common belief about Harlem (most of which are no longer accurate), I never had any issue coming back home, regardless of the time of day. To sum up, I would highly recommend a stay at Michelle's place, and I will certainly consider re-booking her bedroom if I come back to that area again.
