Look no further--you have stumbled upon a GEM when it comes to places to stay in NYC.
The location of the apartment is fantastic! Situated a few blocks away from Central Park in the gorgeous Spanish Harlem area of NYC, this spacious, sun-lit "home away from home" is within walking distance from great restaurants, museums, CP, and a 4,5,6 subway station. The huge windows in the living room allow the natural light to fill the space throughout the day. There are two air conditioners in the apartment which were wonderful to have on hot summer days. The bedroom's location is perfect as it really diminishes any street noise from the front of the building. The kitchen area was excellent, and I had everything I needed right at my fingertips.
I haven't yet mentioned the most valuable part about this unique Airbnb rental, and that is the host couple. I knew these were incredibly special people when I rolled into town at night in the middle of a hurricane. They met me outside with umbrellas and a welcoming smile. They helped me find parking and proceeded to help me carry every trunk, box, suitcase, and bin up to my place in the pouring rain. To say it was like having my own concierge service for 2.5 months is 100% the truth. There was no question I had that they couldn't answer. Their attention to detail and helpful attitude is second to none. If I am ever back in the NYC area, this is absolutely the only place I will consider staying. You will love it, and when you leave you'll feel that you've made friends for life!
