Aram was a wonderful and welcoming during my month-long stay at his apartment, providing helpful advice about the area and generally being a friendly flatmate whenever we crossed paths. The apartment itself was exactly as pictured/described in the listing: the room was light and spacious and the apartment was an ideal base for anyone visiting or studying at Columbia University, as it is a mere ten minutes walk (through Morningside Park!) to the campus. The park is right next to the apartment and makes a great space for a brisk morning run, while Central Park is only fifteen minutes away for longer strolls or sitting in the sun. Numerous subway lines are easily accessible from the flat in five or ten minutes walk, there is an amazing market just round the corner (which sells barbecue from the back!), as well as several cafes/bars. In short, Aram's place is indeed a beautiful apartment, in a great location, and I would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Columbia University/Harlem/Uptown Manhattan.
