Joseph was a wonderful host! I reached out to him very last minute and even asked if I could come earlier due to problems with the place I was previously staying at. He was very accommodating, and I was able to have a very smooth checking in experience.
The place is lovely, feels very New York, yet there is a good amount of space. The place was clean, there was a good sense of privacy in one’s room but also an overall sense of “community”. Joseph was very willing to talk and offer recommendations, even offered to make coffee or tea, yet also respectful of one’s space.
The apartment is situated at a great location, Harlem is a wonderful place with so many parks and so much culture and history, and the apartment is at a part of Harlem that feels safe and serene. Connections by subway and busses are also great. Multiple restaurants I had wanted to check out (mainly soul food and African restaurants as Harlem is a very predominantly black area) were just a walk away.
Would definitely recommend this stay.
