After having an awful start to my trip with a cancelled reservation that followed a 2-day delay, Joy's home completely turned our trip around.

Joy opened her home to us last minute with us arriving late into the night. From the moment we walked in, the house felt like home. It was cozy, clean, comfortable, and spacious. The location is perfect. Everything we wanted to see was within 15-20mins. Very close to laundry, markets, and delicious soul food restaurants. Clearly in the best part of Harlem, the neighborhood's streets felt like a typical New York TV show experience.

I really appreciated how kind and polite Joy was whenever we needed anything. My family even requested that we stay at Joy's if we ever come back to New York.
