I had an amazing stay at the Harlem Flophouse. The bed was incredibly comfortable and the room was spacious and warm. The owner, Rene, was very welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed. When we arrived, jazz music was playing on the radio, creating a welcoming atmosphere. Despite being located outside the city, the quiet area was enjoyable and the recommended Kitchenette for breakfast was lovely. The location next to the 125th Street station made it easy to travel downtown to Brooklyn. The townhouse had beautiful decor and our bedroom was clean and cozy. I would definitely come back to this unique and charming place.

Nothing I didn't like to be fair. 😊

The value for money was excellent, with a spacious and cozy room and a comfortable bed. The Harlem Flophouse is perfectly located near the subway station and within walking distance to Broadway, Central Park, and Columbia University. The staff was welcoming and friendly, making our stay even more enjoyable.

The breakfast choices could be improved with a wider selection of options.

I had a fantastic stay at the Flop House in Harlem. The location was perfect, just a few minutes' walk from the subway station and bus stop. The check-in process was smooth and personalized, with a friendly sign welcoming me by name. The room was spacious and clean, and the bed was the most comfortable I've ever slept in. The overall atmosphere of the brownstone was quirky and unique, and I felt safe and secure during my stay. The WiFi was reliable, and the water pressure in the bathroom was excellent.
