What a wonderful, well equipped apartment. I was very pleased with the well stocked kitchen. Great assortment of pots, pans and cooking utensils. Very, very comfortable bed with luxurious bedding. Lots of plush towels too. The construction Edger mentions was no problem, very little noise. I was surprised how quite the neighborhood is at night. Can't say enough about the great location. For best market, go right at Lexington, walk past 86th street about 2 blocks. Market is on the left. Much better that market on Lex and 86th. Had excellent Mexican food at El Paso. Up 97th just past Park AV on the left. Try the Mole chicken enchiladas. Up there with ones I have had in Oaxaca. You will have a great NYC experience if you stay at Edgar's place.
