The room is inside Hugo's mothers apartment. the place is very basic, however has all one needs. Good WiFi, clean bed sheets, the bed is somehow short (I'm 6 ft or 183 cm) and the mattress is comfortable but rather soft). You can even find a detailed printed guide (with maps) describing everything you need in the neighborhood (supermarkets, restaurants, bars, drugstores etc.). Since it is in Harlem, everything around is relatively cheap.
I spent literally 4 night in the apartment (arriving around midnight and leaving around 8 am). This is why I've never met Hugo in person... Nevertheless he answered my Whats-ups very quickly and was happy to assist with any question.
Hugo's mother is very nice and you are can freely use the kitchen. She even did my laundry free of charge!
To conclude the place is for someone who travels on a budget and still wants to stay close to Manhattan. I would recommend the place for those who want to spend most of their days outside in the city.
Good value for money!
Last note: expect a cat and a turtle walking free in the apartment (they do not enter your room).
