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.

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.

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.

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.

Great apartment
This apartment is quite spacious, comfortable, very well-maintained, and in a good location near the subway and markets Theresa was a perfect host and ensured that we had all that we needed. We stayed for 5 nights over Memorial Day week-end and would definitely stay there again when in New York.

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.

Super Stay!
I stayed at this lovely, apartment for one week while vacationing in New York with my husband. On arrival, I was greeted with such warmth and hospitality from Teresa, the owner.
The one bedroom apartment is elegantly fitted with everything you need, a queen sized bed, flat screen television, modern kitchen with appliances. Free internet access and telephone is also provided and for those hot summer days, a window AC is provided.
One night, the owner held a personal barbeque and invited my husband and I. We truly enjoyed and I give her thumbs up for the lovely food. Theresa is a fabulous hostess and I hope she keeps up the good work.
The building is centrally located and is surrounded by the subway where you can get the ABCD train, supermarket, church, bank and restaurants.
My husband and I would definitely stay here again.

Beautifully Decorated 1 BR Apartment
My daughter and I stayed here while apartment hunting in preparation of her cross country move. This apartment provided a home away from home after long days of viewing apartments. The location was very convenient, the subway station for ABCD trains is less than 1/2 block away. The 1 train is also fairly close. The grocery store was within walking distance, as was a city park with a swimming pool. A mini mart was just a few doors way and the neighborhood provided lots of options for a quick bite to eat.
The kitchen has been updated and is very well equipped. The owner thoughtfully provides everything including coffee for the coffeemaker. The large dining table in the kitchen was a favorite place for us. The apartment has a wall mounted flat screen TV and free WiFi. The owner is available to provide assistance and directions. She even arranged car service for our trip to the airport.
The apartment is furnished with beautiful antique dressers, plush rugs and linens. It is located in a historical brownstone, but has been updated without destroying the charm and character of the building. Everything you need is provided, even shampoo, conditioner, and hair dryer. The apartment has 3 rooms, each with a ceiling fan and is extremely clean. For the muggy summer days, a window AC unit is provided.
I would definitely stay here again when I come visit my daughter.

Clean, cozy and convenient
Location, location, location! Just a few doors to the subways ABCD downtown. Teresa is a fabulous hostess offering information, dining and travel suggestions. We found a pharmacy, laundromat and at least three good meals within a couple of blocks with her help. It seemed her door was always open when we needed her. The apartment is bright and spacious as depicted in the pictures. You can feel the history in every room. I brought my 20-year-old nephew for his first trip to New York and I look forward to bringing his brother next year!

3 days recovery in Litas
I had an operation the day I moved into Litas apartment. So it was a huge relief that Theresa was so lovely and kind to me during my stay there for 3 days.
The apartment was fantastic, really nice and warm. The TV was huge and had all the channels. The bed was huge too. It was a perfect place for me to recover.
When I go to NYC, I will stay at Litas. It has everything and is close to the subway.
I cannot speak highly enough of the place and the great time I had there
Regards
Christian
