This is a comfortable, very clean, and all-around pleasant apartment. Small, but the spaces all work well. The location is sensational if you want to be on the upper east side. Very quiet (except for the inevitable noise of those mounting the stairs) and in a fabulous location, just around the corner from the new Q line and a few blocks from the Lexington subway (and 86th st. bus), walking distance to museums on 5th ave, to Central Park, and east to the river if you're so inclined. Great coffee shops around, including one across the street, and innumerable restaurants. A wonderful and relaxing home base!
