Located in New York, Soul Food 'Mont Morris' is a recently renovated accommodation, 1.7 km from Columbia University and 3.2 km from Metropolitan Museum of Art. The 3-star guest house has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom and free WiFi. Yankee Stadium is 4.4 km away and Strawberry Fields is 5 km from the guest house.

We loved everything from the house itself which is nicely decorated with several art pieces to the room which was cosy, spacious and with a very comfortable bed. Boothe has been a wonderful host which took very good care of us and I cannot thank her enough for her generosity. If you are looking for an experience in an authentic Victorian house then this is definitely the place for you!

Excellent staff, very helpful the entire stay (reception, facilities service, house keeping, etc.). Even after checkout, the staff was extremely service oriented, storing luggage until the end of the day and allowing us to freshen up, have a coffee and wait for our taxi (arranged by hotel). Perfect location, in a great neighborhood, with easy subway excess and great food options all around. Great rooms, we had the quietest stay with best sleep here in NY (compared to 5 other hotels during our trip).

    The location was great, we came from another hotel in which had very bad internet in Times Square, here the internet was very good, initially we received a room which smelled like a cheap cigars club, but the staff was very helpful and changed it immediately. The room was ok, the furniture could have been better, the room was a good 3 stars one, but not 4 stars.

    Good basic budget hotel. Clean and provided what it said in the description. Good local location although the street outside was quiet so not sure I would have wanted to be coming back alone at night. Staff helpful. Fantastic water pressure in bathroom. Fridge/ freezer in room was helpful. Good internet access. Quite noisy at night, but this is New York... Air conditioning 'OK'.
