This is an older space so be wary of that. My husband and I felt very safe around the area. The neighbors are very nice. We were able to walk to a speakeasy at night and wandered around the area during the day. Make sure to eat at Sylvia's! Also, Belle Harlem is top notch as well. It was a bit further than we wouldve liked to the train station, but were also not walkers. We would stay at Kennedy's place again if we were to explore Harlem again. Thanks Kennedy!
