Beautiful studio apartment
Former Tenant
Pros:
The super and handyman are very responsive and kind men. I had no interactions with the landlord (BLDG Management) though I did successfully receive my security deposit back, paid in full, without any problems.
Cons:
My next door neighbor sadly passed away while I was living there
Advice to owner:
Pay your super and handyman well! They do all the work.
