Cons:
SEVERE SEVERE SEVERE (!!!!!) Pest issue

Broke lease early bc cockroaches that were in the apartment from day 1 of me signing lease. See images - I also don’t cook and never used the broken stove. It was repulsive living here, I do not recommend.

E mailed mgmt daily / weekly to no avail, they were useless and ignored e mails.

Old tenant left furniture and the management took 3-4 months before they removed it.


AJ Clarke management is also unhelpful - lease was suppose to begin on the 4th of the month, I didn’t get keys until 11th and even then I was told buzz the building until a neighbor answers then keys are in apt. Super lives far away but he’s nice

I never write reviews but please do not live here it was the worst apartment I have ever lived in, in my many years in NYC
Advice to owner:
Pest control - so disgusting
