I really like the front door staff. They are very personable and helpful. I also really like the space, for New York, we have a decently sized apartment. The heating works great and the a/c in our bedrooms also works great. My room is quieter than my room mates. Our landlords are very helpful and responsive. The super is also very nice, helpful, and efficient.

There are cockroaches in the laundry room, but no rats. So choose your evil. The laundry room has been out of commission for almost 2 months. That sucks, but the dryers were free for a little which was a nice compromise.

Very centrally located to a lot of train lines, Central Park, and food / restaurants. The team that works in the building is great as well.

Due to back positioning of building, the temperature regulation of the apartment is great. It always steers colder, which is amazing during the summer.

Rent will always be adjusted to current market rates, even despite verbal promises to maintain a previously agree upon rate for good tenants.

Not a great amount of natural light, but it’s definitely not zero.

Be more transparent in pricing and intentions. Don’t go out of your way to say you won’t raise the rent for good tenants because your focus is having them long term, then raise the rent 20% after one year while calling the tenants “great” in the same sentence.
