This apartment is a fantastic option to visit NY. You will be in an area where people leave, with little number of tourists, near a jazz club called Minton's and Apollo, and gospel ceremonies and much more. The streets are not so crowded as is the centre of the city, so you feel relaxed when you arrive back home after your visit. We stayed there with two teenagers and it was fantastic.
It is very near one metro station on 25 street, but we discovered that we prefered to walk and take the subway from street 116 where the area is more trendy and we felt better.
Leigh is a great host, he couldn't be more helpful and friendly.
Great option, if I went back I would definetly repeat!!
