Four of my family stayed 4 nights. It takes only 25 min. to downtown by subway which is just one block away.
When we rode a taxi from the airport, the driver warned me a lot about the Harlem area. But I do not understand why. Nothing around looked insane to me. Whenever I went out and came back, the street looked just peaceful.
Emma was so considerate and kind. We enjoyed the New York. I strongly recommend this place.
