We were not impressed with this apartment. The steps really are an issue, very steep, very narrow. Even if you are in good shape. The first set of steps through the first locked door are marble, narrow, steep and really hard to bring items up and down on. There was a mouse in the kitchen, living room area. Seith did send a man, the next day, to patch a hole behind the blue sofa and put an outlet cover on the outlet behind the stove. The man did not fix where the mouse was behind the cabinets, nor close the holes where the counter meets the wall. Yes, there are two rodents, maybe squirrels, running around and chewing inside the ceiling above the sofa in the living room. The electrical outlets did not work in either of the two upstairs bedrooms. Pillows and blankets on sofa need to be washed. This place needs some tender loving care. Location was alright, but I have stayed in better area's in NYC.
