Fantastic Harlem Apartment

Pros

Very nice apartment. We had no issues or problems. It is an older building but nicely updated with high end kitchen. Great sunlight in front windows (1 BR and living room). Building very secure. Never had security issues within apartment building relating to package theft, etc. Close to Morningside Park which is lovely. Nice bodega on the corner. Subway station close by. Some very nice restaurants (higher end) as well as everyday casual pick-up style restaurants nearby within walking distance. Close to everything great in Harlem. Highly recommend.
