Julie's studio apartment is exactly like the pictures. It is very clean and I felt safe walking to and from the train. I never used the train on 135th Street but always used and train in 125th Street as there is more people around and lots of shops and restaurants closer to as well as on 125th Street. Julie was very quick to respond when I reached out to her. The internet was good and the bed is very comfortable...I overslept my first night. Julie and her family live in the house and she does have small children and you will sometimes hear her family enjoying their home but nothing that made me uncomfortable. I travel to New York several times a year for work and I usually rent a place in Harlem and I would definitely recommend Julie's place.
