Apartment is in East Harlem (which is not mentioned in the listing) but I felt very safe in the neighborhood. Apartment only had 1 copy of the key so MAKE SURE to plan with your other guests on your plans or someone will get locked out if you and your guests have different itineraries. Apartment was clean, updated, very comfortable beds. Friendly bodega on the block to get any quick needs. Shower temperature selector seems a little broken but with a little adjustment you can find a comfortable temperature. Apartment seemed well insulated, was very quiet inside.
