The worst slumlord in New York, Constant No Hot Water, No heat, No Prressure

Nothing. Overpriced dirty, unkept hallways, the management is rude and does illegal charges. They are not nice, you can't shower with hot water as there is no water pressure ever. No heat in winter. Rats, Mice, Good Luck!

Cons

Above, Don't Rent here. It's full of Roaches.

Advice to the owners

Fix your building, respect people who are paying overpriced rent for a slum.
