We stayed in Larah's apartment for exactly a month and our experience was completely positive. The apartment was spacious enough for the two of us, with a large bedroom and way too much wardrobe space. For those of you with shopping in mind, you'll have heaps of space to store it all.
The kitchen's well stocked with all necessities and we had a comfortable living space with lots of natural light. The bathroom as well came stocked with towels and appliances.
The neighbourhood was lovely, with the people walking by even complimenting our clothing and wishing us a nice day. Beware though, there is lots of music being played throughout Harlem. For us, it was a cool bonus.
We had two subway lines very close to us with express trains going throughout Manhattan.
As for the hosts, Larah and her family were lovely and very welcoming. Anytime we had a question she would help us out. It's a very relaxed environment and you will feel like it's your very own space in New York and not just a holiday spot.
