Pros and Cons...

Pros

The doormen are awesome, the location is fantastic, and in general the building is pretty well maintained and safe.

Cons

There was a massive leak on the K line and my ceiling collapsed. Management was really unhelpful and unresponsive and because of miscommunication I didn't have a place to stay that night. It also took a long time to repair/inspect for mold.
