The apartment is two blocks from the Central Park but technically it's in Harlem. Be aware that there is no elevator in the building! The apartment is on the 4th floor so if you have a huge suitcase, you've got a problem. The apartment was clean, with everything one might need for a long stay. There is a Whole Foods in walking distance. I wish the host didn't make us to come to his work to pick the keys up. It was definitely a hassle. However, someone came to get the keys when we were leaving. Overall experience was positive, a good value for the money. It was my first time using airbnb and I liked it. Much more authentic experience compared to staying at a hotel. Thanks Thomas!
