The airbnb hosted by Adama is just as advertised. It is situated in Little Italy and a 10-15 minute walking distance from St. Barnabas hospital. It is a good location for any students who are doing rotations at the hospital. I was able to walk to the hospital and back throughout my entire 4 weeks. There are several delis, restaurants, a grocery store and several laundromats also all within walking distance so it is easy to get food and wash your clothes as needed. The Bronx Zoo and Botanical gardens are near by and it is easy to get an uber or order food. The bus stops, subway and train are further away on 183rd Ave which will take some walking to get to.
The apartment and room is just as it looks in the picture. The room is very spacious and will allow you to lounge in the room on the couch or chair or do work at the desk. There is A/C and the heater for the building works to keep you warm when the temperature drops, along with the bedding and blankets provided.
Adama and Leroy were great hosts! They helped me with my bags and communicated easily when I was checking in. They were able to set me up and give me recommendations about the area and how to get around. Adama also cooked for me which goes above and beyond what he had to do as a host! I really enjoyed my stay!
