  We present results of spectral and timing analysis of the fast X-ray
transient XTE J1901+014 based on data of the RXTE and INTEGRAL observatories.
With the INTEGRAL/ISGRI the source was detected at a significance level of
20$\sigma$ with the persistent flux of $\sim$2.7 mCrab in a 17-100 keV energy
band in 2003-2004 (during long observations of the Sagittarius arm region). We
added the RXTE/PCA (3-20 keV) data obtained in 1998 to the INTEGRAL/ISGRI data
to build the broadband spectrum of the source in a quiescent state. It was
found that the spectrum can be well approximated by a simple powerlaw with a
photon index of $\sim$2.15. From timing analysis we found short time scale
aperiodic variations which can be connected with instabilities in the accretion
flow.
