Staying more than one month with Emily and Jimmie was simply great. I grew up in a little village, so I had some worries about the big changes with living in such a big city. Directly upon arrival my worries just vanished. Both Emily and Jimmie were happy to show me the neighborhood and answer all my questions. I felt (and still feel) so welcome living here and do not want to leave. The location is simply a blast. Every morning you can step outside to go for a run in Central Park or catch the next (express!) train at the subway station. It'll take you to Time Square in less than 15 minutes. I've really come to appreciate and love Harlem with all its diversity and don't want to stay in any other part of Manhattan. If you are looking for a great apartment with accommodating hosts in a perfect location: Just book this one.
