This studio apartment was actually nicer than it looked in the pictures. It's plenty big, recently remodeled with new furniture. The bed was comfortable for me.

Note that the building is closer to the subway 96th Street express station than you might think, because the 96th St platform actually runs south of 96th, and there is an entrance at maybe 93rd. So very quick to get to the subway.

There are 24 hour pharmacies and supermarkets close by, plus laundry and lots of restaurants in the neighborhood.

The only issue that someone might have with this place is that it does get some street noise, being 2nd floor facing onto Broadway. It didn't bother me personally though.
