Sarah was a great host, who was receptive to my arrival time and whose communication was excellent. We only crossed paths a couple of times, but in that time she helped make the place feel comfortable and homely. The room was was cosy and clean, and was a great base to explore Harlem and NYC for a few days. The soundproofing to the neighrbours wasn't great (as is the case with so many tenement buildings), but if you're a light sleeper then it's nothing a pair of earplugs won't sort out.
