This is newly renovated three level loft, with one of the levels being a basement, in an up-and-coming area of Harlem.
Brownstone is well lit and easily marked, with a digital video entry system making it easy to arrive.
Upon entry there is a large first floor space with 12 foot ceilings, ceiling fans, and AC unit, and a lofted bedroom above luxury master bathroom which serves as the main bathroom for the main living area. The stairs to the loft are very steep and would be unsuitable for anyone with any orthopedic issues.
There’s a large flatscreen television, and outdoor balcony with stairs down to an outdoor patio. There were a lot of mosquitoes when we visited. As a result, we did not spend any time in the garden.
The kitchen lacks a microwave, but is otherwise well equipped. There are a limited number of cups bowls plates and glasses; we would have to run the dishwasher after every meal. There’s a dining room table that easily seats six. The windows are new and open easily with screens.
There are three true bathrooms, with three total toilets; only one bedroom, which is the children’s bedroom has a door. The master bathroom looks absolutely beautiful, but has a tub that is difficult to climb into and out of; water pressure is so excellent as to be wasteful. The master bedroom on the lower level has a separate entrance and walk out access, so someone staying there could come and go without disturbing either people staying in the kids bedroom, or those staying on the main level.
The beds were comfortable, and the neighborhood was quiet. We received a very helpful list of restaurants that were nearby; people raved about one that was not on the list, but we tried several of the ones that were on the list, including going to a couple jazz clubs which was really fun and an unforgettable experience. The neighborhood is rapidly gentrifying. There’s a whole foods and a CVS right around the corner so anything that you could possibly need is an easy reach.
Overall, great place to stay and highly recommended.
