Janu is a wonderful host. I was to arrive the night before and instead arrived in the am after a red eye. He stayed and waited for me do I could arrive and rest. This was so appreciated. Also enjoyed talking to him Very helpful in suggesting places.
He is two blocks from the park and less than five minutes from two subway stations. Coffee shops two blocks away in either direction. I like the Little Bean. Restaurants 5 minutes away. A deli market 50 yards on the corner.
It's in Harlem. I felt safe and cool area. His place is 50 yards from a major corner. I slept comfortably. I hope his place is available the next time I'm there.
