Trash building with horrible family management
Pros
Nice proximity to NYC iconic locations and the theater district
Cons
The building was frequently filthy, roach infested, and the block was filled with vagrants. The hallways smelled like pee all the time. It was like living in a shelter.. and the family that manages the property are crooks who pay the local homeless people and undocumented people to “clean and repair” the building. The hallways are rancid and never cleaned. They illegally convert rent controlled apartments and overcharge innocent renters, so beware. They treat people horribly, lie and are untrustworthy. They are exploiting the most vulnerable people paying them low wages and overcharging young kids looking to enjoyNew York cCity. Shame on them.
Unit Not Maintained Well
Pros
Super responded to complaints fairly promptly. Heating was also not an issue
Cons
Mice were in our unit several times throughout our stay. Unit is also not maintained well, there were a lot of holes on the wall, peeling paint, etc. Constantly had to remind super to come and fix things even after following up multiple times. heating was also very hot and had to be turned off
Advice to the owners
The unit needs a lot more upkeep and rodent control
