Absolutely fantastic host. She is super friendly & will make you feel like you are at home. She is very accommodating for every request & introduced me to some of her friends in the building. She also had one of her Brazilian friends make me cheese balls on the morning the day after I came, and then the morning when I left too.
Just one thing to know about the place though: it is a typical NYC apartment in a harlem neighborhood. Which means it is not the largest area, and there is noise from the street that comes into the room frequently. The place is clean, but don't expect something super fancy.
