I lived here for 3 months and came for work (travel nurse). It is a beautiful apartment, brand new, super clean and modern!! The bed was extremely comfortable!!
There were many things I had to purchase that the apartment did not have but Asi (Noomi owner) helped out to reimburse for most of it, however I still had to get a bunch more things out of pocket. The rent was extremely overpriced for the area, and for how many items I needed to purchase out of pocket.
There is a doorman at the front desk and security near the Apollo theater, which made me feel safe but the area in general is far from safe. Second week I was here there was a shooting few streets down. Harlem has a lot of crime, huge homeless population and unsafe in general. Walking to the subway, going to work, going to CVS or groceries I would get catcalled and harassed. I had to be extremely careful.
Along with this I never travel without my service dog and he did not allow me to bring mine without an additional $1,500 charge. She is extremely clean, quiet and makes no mess. Airbnb is supposed to allow service animals anywhere free of charge. I even have a doctors note. This made it difficult for me as I need her by my side. Also the building was very pet friendly as numerous people had dogs and cats there. I struggled not having my dog by my side.
Overal the building itself is nice. It has a small gym and washer/ dryer room. The people who live her are friendly and the doorman are super nice. Packages are locked and secured. City views are great!!
