Photos and Description of the Harlem vacation apartment rental
2 Bedrooms, 1 Bath, Garden, Sleeps 4. Non Smoking.

Beautiful apartment, beautiful garden, great location! The apartment was recently renovated and includes everything you would expect in luxury accommodation. Directly above four Subway lines - 10 minutes to mid-town. Near parks, sports club and large 24-hour supermarket. Spacious, fully furnished kitchen with ice maker and dishwasher. There's is no smoking in the apartment or the garden.

We constantly update our calendar so you can see if dates are free for your trip.

Payments: Deposit payments and prepayment of rent may be made by credit card. If you wish to pay the rent in advance, we request that you make these payments before leaving home. When credit card companies see a large debit away from home they often block your card.

The House: This beautiful apartment is on the ground floor of a five floor Brownstone. The house was built in 1888 as a single family house -- five floors plus a cellar! Those were big families back then. During those years, this garden apartment was the kitchen and informal dining room for a very extended family.

The entire row was built at the same time. It was built to match the row just north of the house. The area was made into the Sugar Hill Historic District in 2003. The landmark status assures that the area will continue to improve and that the homes, over time, will be restored to their original splendor.

The Neighborhood: Sugar Hill and Hamilton Heights have long been desirable neighborhoods. Hamilton Heights is named for Alexander Hamilton. Hamilton's country home, The Grange, was located on his estate just south of 145th Street. Today The Grange is part of the National Parks system and can be visited at the north end of St. Nicholas Park.

During the Harlem Renaissance, African Americans made their mark on NYC as they had never been permitted to do so before. And when they could afford it, they wanted to buy a brownstone up on the hill -- everything would be sweet then -- thus - Sugar Hill.

From the moment we booked our stay to the moment we left, everything was perfect. Rainy? 4 umbrellas were provided. Need coffee? In the cabinet next to all the accoutrements. Wondering what to do, where to eat? A folder is waiting for you with directions, suggestions, and history of the neighborhood.
The apartment is beautiful, the beds are ultra-comfortable, the neighborhood is great, transportation is seamless. Individual climate controls for the bedrooms. You will not find a better apartment or nicer, more thoughtful hosts. Thanks, guys! See you again, I hope!

The one in Czech

As Jim asked us to provide a review in czech, here is it:-) to sum up in english - the apartment is very convenient and clean, it is as described in the listing and is very close to the subway which is going directly below the appartment and some trains are so loud that you can very clearly hear it. However you can get used to it quickly. Jim is very sympathetic host, he provided us with a lot of helpful information and recommendations. Jim - thanks a lot for that!

V NY jsme stravili jeden tyden. Byt se nachazi v prizemi domu, je velmi cisty a pohodlny, fotografie odpovidaji skutecnosti. Byt je vybaven kuchyni, v blizkem okoli je nekolik obchodu s potravinami. V byte je obcas slyset metro projizdejici pod domem, obcas i hluk z prvniho patra - da se na to zvyknout pomerne rychle a pokud jdete spat dostatecne unaveni, ani vas to nevzbudi. Metro je cca 100m od domu, expresnim vlakem se do centra dostanete za 15 min, o hodinu dele trva metrem cesta na JFK. Na Yankee stadion lze dokonce dorazit pesky. Jim byl velmi pozorny hostitel, poskytl nam radu uzitecnych rad a informaci - ty ostatne obdrzite uz v emailu, ve kterem vam bude odpovidat na vas pozadavek na ubytovani. Toto ubytovani urcite doporucuji.

We stayed in the apartment for one week and enjoyed it very much. The apartment was clean, comfortable, and very appealing! The owners are always around when needed and very helpful. We loved the neighborhood and the express subway line which is stationed at the next block. We would also like to mention the completely equipped kitchen which is usable to prepare any meal.
We would definetely recommend this apartment and would return in the future.
Thank you guys!

Sugar hill pearl

A great place to stay in NYC! Up in Haarlem it’s unique, safe and even quiet. You’ll find shops and restaurants in the neighbourhood, some museums and attractions are very close. Sugar Hill itself is worth to visit, so here you are. Even though you’re not far out of downtown. The subway station is around the corner and the “A-Train” takes you to 42nd street in about 10 Minutes.
The appartment is well equipped, spacy and clean. Jim was a great host, he cared a lot and was around to help us. Everything worked out fine. Thanks a lot Jim, it was nice meeting you! Hope you’ll have many guests but still have some space for us when we’re back.
