Owen’s place is exactly as pictured. This is an unbelievable value. This hostel-style room is stylishly furnished, clean, comfortable and in a great multi-cultural neighborhood where you feel the real soul of the city and hear the sweet hum of Harlem. I have never shared a room or rented a private room before because I felt that it’s not safe. I was prepared to leave if I felt any inkling of unease. Owen was gracious enough to meet me at my Uber and bring in my luggage. Owen is protective and always there to make sure I felt safe. He provided free coffee and gave directions when needed. I will definitely stay here again and would definitely refer this rare find.
