Relive the historical jazz era in this Harlem neighborhood in Manhattan, New York. This three bedroom apartment share on Convent Avenue and West 128th Street in Harlem, conveniently located near Columbia University and City College. Located on the 2nd floor (1st European floor) of a 5-story walk-up building secured with a buzzer system and features a hallway with a mosaic tile floor.
Please note: There are two rooms for rent. The bedroom is private; however, the living room, kitchen and bathroom are shared with the roommate and the owner of the apartment, who occupies the third bedroom.
The three bedroom shared apartment features hardwood floors and eclectic furnishings. The living room has a window with a western exposure of a typical New York City tree-lined street. Furthermore, the room contains a sectional sofa which faces a coffee table and flat-screen TV with cable access. The eat-in kitchen can be found opposite the living room. It contains stainless steel appliances, a window with a view of the building’s courtyard, and two stools to accompany the wall-mounted countertop where you can enjoy home-cooked meals. The bathroom includes a bathtub with shower, WC and washbasin.
Both bedrooms for rent are similar and feature hardwood flooring, closet space, usable desk, and a flat-screen TV with cable access. The first bedroom for rent of the apartment (bedroom 1) features a window with a northeastern exposure of the courtyard. This room contains a double bed, a dresser and closet for storage space, and also a mini fridge. The second bedroom (bedroom 2) has warm colored walls with a window for natural light, a queen sized bed, a dresser, closet and a full-length mirror. Linen and towels are provided upon arrival.
In the streets of this neighborhood, many new stories are told, music is played, and history has been made. In Harlem, attractions in the area include the iconic Apollo Theater (0.4mi/600m), the Studio Museum Harlem (0.6mi/900m) and soul food restaurants such as Sylvia’s (0.6mi/1.0km) or Red Rooster (0.6mi/1.0km). Living conveniences are nearby with Express 1 Laundromat on the block. Furthermore, you’re just 3 blocks away from the main street of the neighborhood: 125th Street. Here you will find grocery stores, pharmacies, retail stores such as H&M and Old Navy.
Commuting downtown is easy, since the 125th Street/ Saint Nicholas Avenue (0.2mi/240m) subway station is nearby to catch two express trains, the A & D, and two local trains, B & C.

I stayed in the apartment for 4 months and I was really happy (I actually decided to extend my stay, and I'm currently staying in the other room). Bedroom 2 which is the one I stayed at first is a great room and is bigger than what I expected from the pictures. There's a flat screen 32" TV with cable and the wifi connection is great. The kitchen and bathroom are small but have everything you need. |

The location of the apartment in absolutely fantastic: just 2 blocks from a subway station where you can catch 2 express trains straight to Midtown and Lower Manhattan. Shops ranging from H&M to Starbucks are also just blocks away on 125th street. |

I enjoyed my stay at your apartment, the kitchen was clean with new appliances, bathroom was small but clean. The living room was excellent! I loved the space and the couch. My room was very nice, not too loud, spacious and comfortable bed. Nice environment and fun building. Close to school and 25th street. |

This apartment is really great: clean, spacious, comfortable. It is also very well located, on a calm street, near W 125 St. and Amsterdam Ave. where you will find everything you need. Plus, the A, C, B, and D trains are only a short walk away and going to midtown or downtown is very quick! |
