The apartment is like in the photos. Very well located, close to midtown and easy to access by subways and buses. The wide sidewalks make walking easy with luggage. The 63rd street subway has a elevator which facilitates a lot with heavy luggage, and has escalators as well. Markets and pharmacies are nearby for shopping during lodging. Yana was receptive and easily communicated. One point that should be considered is the fact that there is no elevator and the apartment is on the 6th floor, it was difficult to carry the suitcases up and down the stairs. Yana's kitten was a good companion while we were at home and had fun playing with it! Recommended!
