Reviews of 433 West 53 Street

Nice place to stay, not a home

Pros

No major issues. Clean, no pests, etc. Fairly quiet, great light, good location.

Cons

The construction of the building, and the way its managed cut corners in a way that is frustrating. It could be an excellent experience, but its sub par. E.g. cheap cabinets with shelfs that fall down, no bike storage even though there is plenty of space for one in the otherwise useless courtyard, nothing is allowed in hallways (even welcome mats), management is unresponsive (took months to deal with packages getting stolen daily). Overall no deal breakers but feels more like a place to stay and not a home due to some of these things. Electricity is also wildly expensive since we pay for heating via an inefficient heat pump, and hot water via our in unit water heater.

Nice looking building, but thinnest walls

Pros

Laundry room Overall maintenance/cleanliness

Cons

You can hear everything — other people in your apt (even if they’re quiet), neighbors next to you, and neighbors across the hallway. Also anyone above you too. The doors in the building slam shut and are incredibly loud
