In an historic home on 155th Street, in Harlem's storied Sugar Hill neighborhood, the Saint Nicholas Inn is a cozy, four-room bed and breakfast run by friendly, knowledgeable, and unobtrusive hosts who cater especially to international visitors. The large and clean rooms, which feel more like those in a friend's house than a hotel, are well-maintained despite the building's age, but both the decor and the building understandably show some wear and tear. The communal breakfast table, too, feels like it's in a friend's kitchen. The C subway line stops just down the block, dropping you in Midtown in 20 minutes, and other subway stops are within walking distance. Despite the distance to major sights, the rates make it quite a deal.
