Vraiment très agréable, et l'hôtesse Valérie est charmante, et regorge d'informations utiles. Seul bémol : le bruit des radiateurs la nuit (si on a le sommeil léger, cela peut gêner)

Aver scelto Harlem, secondo i miei amici, è stato azzardato...forse...ma è stato bellissimo ad es. sedersi la sera sulle scale a fumare una sigaretta e chiacchierare con Valerie (padrona di casa), "reppare" con i ragazzi del quartiere in uno slang assurdo, assistere a qualche tafferuglio, essere fermata dalla polizia e perquisita solo xkè sei un bianco in un quartiere nero e infine...fare colazione da Louise, una bottega di quartiere dove nn entra mai un turista e dove ho mangiato meravigliosi bacon and scramble eggs e...ragazzi...pancake più buono di..di..nn potete immaginare. C'è una cosa però...ero nel quartiere di Mount Morris W 120st e nn sono mai andata oltre la 125st.
