Friends & Family - Harlem

Getting to the property was really easy! They sent detailed instructions for arrival and check out. The building is gorgeous and the room was very clean, well maintained, and well furnished. Unlike most hotels, this room felt very much like a room at someone’s house, rather than a hotel! Even though the building is near a busy area, the street itself is quiet and tucked away, which made sleeping easy (as someone who isn’t from a big city). Honestly, my stay here was one of my most pleasant hotel stays ever, and I’d highly recommend this to anyone travelling to NYC!

I was so happy with my stay, there really wasn’t anything I would change :)

The location was fantastic. It was easily accessible to subway, transit, and walking distance to the Appollo Theater. The decor is stylish and quaint. The bed was super comfortable which help for a good night sleep. Above all, the manager was very friendly and welcoming.

I didn't like the fact that there were about 15 steps into the entry and double or more for another two flights of stairs. I didn't see this in the listing description about heavy climbing It was very difficult to carry our heavy luggage up and down. I had the most difficulty because I previously had 3 pathological fractures in my left extremity. Parking was not easily accessible. Parking garages should also be listed.
