Jamie is a great host and always very responsive to questions and requests. We stayed in her apartment for a month when my daughter did a summer program at Columbia U. It was a 15mn walk to campus. The apartment is in the heart of Harlem and very close to the 125th street subway station and Whole Foods. The pizza restaurant Sottocassa was very authentic and delicious and really made our day as we love the Naples style pizzas and it was so easy to order from there. Harlem is probably not my favorite neighborhoods in NYC but we wanted to be close to the University. The apartment is in excellent condition and everything is new - very hard to find in NYC! All the appliances are in top condition and we really appreciate the host provided the top of the line pans, pots and knives - just made staying there for a month so much more enjoyable.
