Our 4-day stay at the Afum dwelling was great! It was clean and decorated nicely. The beds were very comfortable and there were extra linens, towels, and pillows. We are not huge TV watchers but there is one in every room for those who are. We did like that bit of technology in the living room. We listened to soft music as we chatted in the living room or we cooked meals. The kitchen was decently equipped with pots, pans, dishes, silverware, cups, and serving utensils. There’s a small food market within walking distance (about 4 blocks away).
There were many, many pros about this place with very few cons and those are outside the host’s control. I’ll list them for you in case they are deal-breakers but they don’t warrant giving this stay any less than 5-stars.
1- No designated parking. You may have to park a street away.
2- You can hear the upstairs neighbors shuffling around from early morning (about 7:30a) until late at night (about 11p). But it’s really not that bad.
3- With the exception of the Bronx Zoo, there’s not really anything at all to do in the local area.
