We stayed 6 days in Charles´s apartment. The apartment is located in Harlem and perfect if you need some quitness of the city. We had a great time there and never felt uncomfortable in the neighbourhood. The metro station is only 3 minutes away and it takes you only a few stations to get Downtown. There are supermarkets, restaurants and bars around the apartment.
The apartment is clean and you have everything that you'll need to prepare a meal or to relax like plenty of books and DVD's.
We never met Charles in person but he was always available by phone or email. The communication was very good and Chales is very helpful. We totally would recommend the apartment to anyone who likes a basic, clean and quiet acommondation in New York.
