This well-located Harlem apartment is a wonderful place to base yourself in Manhattan. My partner and I spent several weeks living here and so know it well. Located on the second floor of a historic building, the apartment faces the building’s inner courtyard, and so you hear less street noise (though there are some machinery sounds, which did not both us at all).
Inside, the apartment is cozy, perfect for a couple or an individual and well equipped for cooking, as we often did. The apartment is pleasant and everything is in good condition.
The location is ideal for exploring or working in New York. It is in the heart of Harlem, near 125th street, with great food shopping nearby, as well as an excellent wine store, and many cafés, bars, and restaurants. The subway is steps away.
Not least, the host Brinton, is great: friendly, helpful, responding quickly to any concern or request. I highly recommend the apartment. We would not hesitate to stay there again.
