Mekkie's apartment was really spacious, very clean and well equiped and it felt everything we may have required already being thought of. Communication with Mekkie was very prompt and responsive and getting into the apartment also very easy. We really enjoyed the South Harlem area. There are a number of cafes and bars right there which we enjoyed as well as there being well equipped grocery outlets close by. We made use of how close Colombia University was. The convenience of the subway station being made getting to other areas around NY quick and easy. We would definitely stay at Mekkie's apartment again when we come to NY
