Johnnys appartement is very close to the Central Park (5 minutes on foot) als well as 5 minutes to the lake East River. The area Harlem is also very close by (15-20 minutes) and perfect of a Sunday church (Gospelchor) visit, which I can strongly recommend you.
Around the flat are different cofe bars, restaurants and 24/7 shops. Furhermore, two different train stations are very close by (3 minutes and 5 minutes walking) and going direct to the city centre as well Brooklyn.
Johnny was a great host and recommended different activities.
The communication (e-mail ) with him was fast and helpful.
His flat is easy to find, definitiv big enough for two (he is also living there) and absolut clean. Beyond this, the flat was very quiet (good for sleeping) and I never felt uncomfortable.
As a summary, I enjoyed the time in his flat and can strongly recommend you his flat as well he as a person.
I wish you as well Johnny all the best for the future.
Have fun in NY City
Chris
