We loved our stay at Caroline's apartment. It was very conveniently located on major subway lines making it very easy to get to Downtown Manhattan. It's also a short walk across the bridge from Harlem where you can find lots of places to eat a Soul Food breakfast.
Her apartment was warm & welcoming when we checked-in. Bed was incredibly comfortable and her abode is quirkily decorated!
Charlie's bar downstairs is great for getting fed, watered and entertained by the local talent. The gym was really handy too although it has a heavily sloped floor which might be something to consider if you are an athlete hoping to train while you're in NYC.
Caroline was incredibly responsive and helpful to any questions we had during our stay. I definitely recommend her pad as a place to rest while you experience New York!
