I lived here for about three months, and I really appreciated how much it felt like a home immediately. It was important to me to live somewhere that felt inviting since it was quite a long stay. I appreciated how lovingly the place was decorated--you can tell that a lot of care and thought was put into the decorations--and I loved that there was a reading nook! The neighborhood has a number of Ital restaurants, which was great for me as a vegan, and I appreciated that there was a large 24/7 grocery store quite close by. It was extremely useful that the place was near the 2 and 5 trains, as well as the Metro North Harlem line. It was really nice that the botanical gardens were close by as well. The hosts were great communicators and very responsive to any issues that came up.
