This is a great place to stay in Harlem. It is close to the station 116 st C line, which takes you all the way to Brooklyn in 40 minutes. On Frederick Douglas st, you can find a bar called The Fox (recommended by the host), and the Harlem Tavern. You can also walk to Central Park, and walk down to lower Manhattan. There is enough to do. Frederick Douglas may seem like a very sketchy street, but don’t worry, because it is New York after all. I totally recommend this place!
