Jesse is an incredibly gracious host. He responded to messages within minutes and did everything he could to make our stay the best it could be. The apartment is beautiful and modern, as is the kitchen.
Harlem is not the most prestigious neighborhood, but we never had any problems even though we were walking in the dark. There are 2 train stations within a 10 min walk and from there you can get anywhere in Manhattan. If we ever come back to New York, we would be very happy to stay at Jesse's again.
