Lita’s Lovely Suite!

I really enjoyed my stay here. Theresa was very hospitable and accommodating. The location is perfect, the bed and linens were clean and comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked. The online pictures capture the essence of the suite perfectly. We did get a little cold and would have welcomed a space heater since the thermostat cannot be controlled in the suite. Other than the temperature issue, the suite along with the host made for a pleasant experience.

Great location for our needs

The place was quieter than I expected due to its proximity to the street face on 145th. Good sun coming in during the day as well.

Super Trip

First let us start with the size of the apartment and the cleanliness. Could not have asked for more. Stocked very well. Theresa was wonderful. Great location for walking and running, 2 blocks from subway and right near our son’s apartment. Would recommend it very highly.

Hello Harlem

This is a spacious, airy suite that is immaculately kept. The A train (express) to downtown is 50 yards from the doorstep! A grocery is a few blocks away if you need supplies. The corner fruit stand nearby is excellent. Harlem is a lively place where people live and work with gorgeous Brownstones on every street. We always felt safe. You might feel the landlady is hovering but we're homeowners and understand her point of view.

Beautiful place convenient to downtown

We had a great time but the experience was somewhat marred by an initial miscommunication over accommodation details. Also we suggest that the host dial back on the quantity and tone of the various posted rules, we didn’t feel welcomed, but Teresa was extremely nice. She helped us straighten everything out.

Wonderful

We were very pleased with Lita's Parlor. It was large, clean and had all the conveniences of home. It is close to the subway and this area has wonderful places to eat within walking distance. Harlem Public, The Grange, and Sugar Hill Coffee Shop are wonderful local places. Sugar Hill is right across the street! The best part is meeting Theresa; she is very kind and helpful. We were pleasantly surprised that even though it is on 145th street is was quieter than many hotels we've stayed in at other locations in the city.

Very pleasant, convenient apartment in active, lively area of Harlem

We enjoyed our stay at Lita's. The apartment is so very convenient to subway system and many local grocery stores, wine, sandwiches, etc. Quiet and comfortable. Theresa assisted us with transportation to the airport, which was an immense help to us. Thanks so much. The apt is only a block from a relative, so we will surely stay again.

Amazing property and owner!

We absolutely loved our stay with Lita at her property! She was so accommodating, greeted us at the property, and was so welcoming. She made out stay very easy and enjoyable. The property is located very close to subway stations and is a beautiful, historic home. We will be staying here again in five months.
