Amanda's place is a nice get-away from the street hub-bub of East Harlem. It is on an upper floor of a newer building. There is 24-7 security at the front desk and a quick elevator. There is an easy access to the bus to Laguardia. A train station for the 4, 5 and 6 a couple of blocks away. There is a great breakfast stop on the block run by a nice family.
The neighborhood during our stay was a little rough and dirty; however, we felt safe and no one took much interest in us and left us alone. We did not venture out much at night and ordered food in, which worked well.
The pictures are accurate. This is the owners home and is not just for AirBnb.
Amanda is super friendly and is easy to work with.
If you want to be in East Harlem, this is a great spot for you!
