You cannot ask for a more gracious host than Bertha. Friendly and helpful, she represents to me the ideal Airbnb experience: to feel a home away from home. My room was spotless and cozy with a comfortable bed. he building is quiet. This is my idea of five star experience, affordable no less.
Bertha's home is in the Inwood neighborhood of New York. There is a lively street life, as well as serene parks to explore. I find the neighborhood safe and walkable. Your stay is steps from the MTA 1 train, which is so convenient to getting to every part of the city. Yes, you will hear the train from your room; from the 6th floor it is just a hum, your lullaby from the city that never sleeps.
