This is a genuine apartment share that does not pretend to offer 5-star luxury. If it feels like you're staying in somebody else's bedroom, that's because you are. The bedroom and bathroom were both clean. Chris is a welcoming host. His communication is efficient, if minimalistic in content. The real attraction of the place is its location; Central Park is almost its backyard. An entrance to the park and a bike rental shop are a 2-minute walk away. There are also 2 well-connected subway stations an easy walk away; we got to Yankee Stadium in slightly under 30 minutes. The neighbourhood (the southern fringe of Harlem) was vibrant, and a very different experience from suburbia.
