Yes, indeed. We stayed at Margot's the first week of a four week trip to New England. We chose Margot's primarily because of its location and were very happy with our choice. We were not concerned in the least about safety. Kids playing basketball, moms with babies in strollers...this area is home to artists, professionals, and tourists like us enjoying... More

We stayed here when we visited New York for the first time in 2011. The room was clean and tidy and from what I understand well sized for new york. Where we made a mistake was not understanding the location! the location is on the edge of spanish harlem, for a first time traveller to new york I found this... More

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Margot. It's a hidden gem which one wouldn't expect to find in Harlem. The room was comfortable and clean, and actually a decent size room for New York. It's located a short walking distance from Central Park and moderately close to the museums. The room design and decor desperately needs... More

Really enjoyed staying at the Margot Guest House in East Harlem - our room had everything we wanted - it was also lovely and warm as we arrived in a blizzard! Tod was very helpful and his information book is spot on with helpful places to eat and things to do We loved East Harlem as we felt we had... More

We cannot thank Todd enough for the generosity and kindness that he showed us during our trip and for us, he distinguishes the Margot Guest House from other places to stay in New York City, where we doubt the service is as human! Communication was great both before and during the trip and that was also much appreciated. The Guest... More

My wife and I just finished up three nights at this wonderful spot. Room was clean and comfortable and had plenty of room. Location on Lexington Ave is ideal for a quick walk (three short blocks) to the subway (no 6) and Central Park is 5 mins by foot. Several very good restaurants are within walking distance, and for those... More

We stayed 5 nights at the Margot Guesthouse in August and what a treat! The large and beautiful, clean room was like a quiet oasis in the hustling, bustling city of New York. It's away from downtown, on Lexington, just 1 block from Central Park. It's close to the subway, just a 3 minute walk. It's also a block away... More

The guest house is in a great location, a couple short blocks from a subway stop and within walking distance of Central Park. Todd, who is a research doctor, is a super friendly and accommodating host – very talkative (which we didn’t mind but others might). He provided a lot of information about restaurants. Plus, it’s handy having him stay... More

Excellent service, nice, clean and spacious room. Most welcoming staff, helpful and dedicated to the needs of their guests. For us, it was a great place to stay as you can live the real New York away of the hordes of tourist, but close to every attraction, even on foot if you don't mind a long walk through Central Park....
