    Alright but Not Recommended
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Laundry in unit
    - Rooms are decently sized
    - Cheap for NYC
    - Renovated recently
    - No problem in getting hot water
    - Dishwasher
    Cons:
    - Loud area and windows are thin
    - Had a cockroach problem initially (had to deal with it ourselves)
    - Management is awful. Fridge broke for a few weeks, and we didn't get a response until 311 was involved. Other issues are unresolved.
    - Heat gets too hot
    - Air quality is not the best
    - Water pressure is awful
    - Not the best area
    Advice to owner:
    Be more responsive to your tenants!
