Nice place and location for the money and we felt safe during our stay. It was close to eating, shopping and the train. However the amenities are very basic and could use an update. We were surprised that the bed did not include a full set of sheets, only a fitted sheet and comforter. A bit unusual. We contacted the host regarding the top sheet and was told there would be none, but they could provide additional blankets. (Thanks, but a top sheet is preferred).
The other unusal thing we encountered was there was not a complete set of towels provided upon our arrival. There was only 1 bath and 1 hand for 2 people. I contacted the host and we able to get another bath and hand towel but never able to get any face towels our entire 5 day stay. Not a deal breaker but definitely not expected. The last thing which was not really major was you could occasionally hear the host and/or family walking above you.
Our overall our stay was good. We would feel confident in recommending this AirBNB for your stay in Harlem.
