If you can get past the nightly shootings, we had a good time in NYC. The location of the airbnb isn't in the best area of Harlem. There were three shootings during our short time there and two of them were fatal. Fortunately, we were all safe.
The apartment was the right size for four adults, it was clean and the air conditioning was a plus. But I believe the price was a bit stiff because of the area.
