Neida's place was a nice spot to stay in Harlem. It's between Amsterdam and Broadway so you can walk to lots of fun things and close enough to the bus and metro lines to be back in midtown in 20 minutes or so. We had a beer Friday night and I met her other guest but then I was on a mission to see as much as possible. I did a nice walking tour of Harlem and won a Broadway lottery ticket for a show. One thing Neida and the other guest recommended I do that I will definitely do on my next visit is the Staten Island ferry, to see the skyline and the Statue of Liberty. One thing I noticed was that though the bedroom door locks, it doesn't latch. I never felt unsafe in the apartment but the door doesn't latch so if it's locked it can still be pushed or pulled open. I'd recommend her place for good conversation (I was traveling alone) and the location in Harlem.
