Ephraim's studio is wonderful and he is an excellent host. We arrived to find a variety of snacks, coffee, tea and breakfast cereals, as well as cold drinks in the refrigerator. The studio is comfortable, clean and beautifully decorated. You'll love the pillows and plush comforters. Shampoo and body wash are supplied, along with huge, fluffy towels. There is also a blow dryer, iron and ironing board. The large flat screen tv has cable, along with tons of great movies on DVD. There is also a Playstation with 2 controllers for gaming. Ephraim has really thought of everything. There is even a large first aid kit, which we gratefully used on the blisters we caused by walking nearly 20 miles on just our first day of exploring this amazing city.
The studio is located in a beautiful brownstone in Harlem just a couple of blocks from 2 different subway stations. Plus there are plenty of places to eat nearby or shop for anything else you might need within an easy walk. We were often out late at night and we always felt safe walking around Harlem to get back to the apartment.
Ephraim is quick to respond to questions, has wonderful suggestions and he is available when needed, but he gives guests their space and privacy.
We highly recommend!!! And we hope to stay here again on our next trip to New York.
