I would definitely recommend guests stay at Jean and Matt’s wonderfully clean, spacious and beautiful townhome. It was tastefully decorated, had a fully equipped kitchen, full laundry facilities and two bathrooms.
Our hosts warmly welcomed us into their home and assisted us with our luggage up the flight of stairs. They stocked our fridge with eggs, milk and beverages and also provided coffee, tea and fruit to get us started. There was also a basket full of amenities such as toothpaste, first aid kits etc. in case we forgot an item; a welcome surprise as this is above and beyond what most hosts provide.
This is a a multilevel townhome so there is a flight of stairs to the main floor and a second flight of stairs to the second floor where the bedrooms are located.
The bedrooms were large and had comfortable mattresses and pillows. There were ample outlets to charge our electronics. One bedroom looked out on to the street so as expected it was a tad noisier than the other room that looked into the backyard. Overall though the neighbourhood is quiet.
The living room had a comfy sectional to relax at the end of the day with a large flat screen tv outfitted with Amazon Alexa, Netflix etc.
The neighbourhood was conveniently located close to great restaurants, Whole Foods, Pharmacy, wine shops etc. The subway and train stations were also just a few blocks away making getting around easy. We (3 women) felt safe and comfortable walking around at night.
We were in the heart of Harlem and enjoyed walking around the neighbourhood taking in the wonderful architecture and it’s lively folks. Central Park North and Columbia University were within walking distance.
Jean and Matt were kind, warm and welcoming. Any questions we had were quickly answered. We couldn’t ask for better hosts. Thank you Jean and Matt. I can’t wait to stay at your home with my family.
