It's a typical NYC cheap apartment but expensive
Pros
Lovely neighbors, well located, surprisingly pest free for being above a restaurant. A nice amount of space.
Cons
Above a bar, issues with heat and hot water, trash around the corner, hallways are disgusting. Super is kind but will ignore you completely for days, weeks, months. Issues with plumbing in the building that cause ceiling leaks. The building has rent controlled tenants, and I think the owner intentionally keeps it shitty to push them out.
Advice to the owners
Actually fix things. Stop being cheap about heat.
Mice, lack of heat
Pros
location, space for money is great
Cons
no heat in the middle of winter, the building is old so always found droppings and had bad rodent problem, also bugs. very poor response time from management
Advice to the owners
maintain building better, respond to complaints about serious issues such as heat and mice
