Laura is the nicest person i ever met. She will help you with everything, any information about the city and more.
I am so glad that i have stayed at her apartment.
From her apartment you can take the subway (145 St or 137 st to downtown) and you'll get to time square in 25 min ( depending if there are workers in the subway or not you might experience delays ). For the way back just take the subway at 50th st to uptown & bronx ( near Applebee's Time square).
Laundry very fast and the gym on the second floor is small but perfect it has basically everything you'll need for a complete workout.
Lovely rooftop.
When i first got there i've got intimidated of the area ( Harlem ) but is actually nice and safe.
I would definitely go back there.
I spent an amazing two weeks in NY, Thank you Laura for your kindness and Hospitality.
From the land down under
