The flat was spacious and in a great location--close to the subway on 125th and a short walk to many coffee shops, restaurants, and parks. My husband and I really enjoyed staying in Jacob's flat, and we loved the vibe of west Harlem. We met Marlyn (Jacob's mom), and she was very nice and welcoming. Check-in/-out was convenient, the bed was really comfortable, and the room stayed nice and cool. The only thing is that the carpet and front door runner were a tad dusty and made our allergies act up a bit towards the end of our week-long stay. The rest of the flat was very clean. We do highly recommend Jacob's flat!
