I had a really nice stay Rose is a pretty good hostess, she had a pretty clean house (you really will appreciate it, especially in NYC) and she pays attention to all details. I really enjoyed my time at Rose's house, I really enjoyed chatting with her and occasionally with her son Lion. I recommend the Rose house, especially for a long stay. Harlem is a pretty nice location you will be really near manhattan, and you will have good options to commute by subway and bus.
