Ephraim’s place is a clean, comfortable and stylish place! He is a very thoughtful host and makes sure to equip quests with everything they need (plenty of clean towels, sheets, refreshments in the fridge, a plethora of books, movies and games). The decor is unique and the house itself is beautiful and matches the depictions of the typical NYC townhouse! We were told that Harlem is not the safest place to stay but I can personally attest that this is completely untrue. People in the neighbourhood were very friendly and helpful with directions. We had absolutely no problems. Ephraim was so kind as to send us suggestions of what to see/do in the city and those were very insightful. We would definitely stay here again and can’t wait to return! 10 out of 10!
