Ruth and her husband make you feel very welcome, and are responsive to requests. This is a clean, bare bones garden apartment. Great location, not too far from the 77th Street 6 train stop. Convenient laundry just outside your door - although it is an active laundry that early in the week goes all day long. Keep it in mind if you are looking to catch some sleep during business hours. Wifi signal is sporadic due to the basement locale, so be prepared to use your hotspot. Overall, a great place to stay on the UES.
