Great stay at Aryeh's place, conveniently located near the 96th Street 1-2-3 subway station, but west of West End Ave so it was very quiet. (The station has an entrance around 94th Street, so this apartment is closer to it than may be apparent.) Also close to Riverside Park and one of the loveliest walking areas in the city for trees and beautiful buildings along Riverside Drive. Very safe at night. This building is an older walkup, nothing fancy but quite cozy. The star of the show here is the cat, Bella. Incredibly affectionate and immediately friendly calico - we looked forward to seeing her when we got back each night. Lots of great eateries around. A bottle of wine was left out for us, which was a nice welcome! We had a special request to be able to store our bags early after a redeye flight, and Aryeh was most accommodating.
