    Affordable Doorman Building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Doorman are amazing and super helpful. Any necessary maintenance happens in a timely manner. No issues with pests.
    Cons:
    Walls are a little thin and if neighbors are loud, you can definitely hear them. Apartment kitchens could use an update.

    Roaches in Unit and Unresponsive Super
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very centrally located.
    Cons:
    Doormen were useless.
    I had roaches in my apartment, and the superintendent refused to do anything to solve the issue.
    Building was dirty and not maintained at all.
    The unit I lived in is currently being billed as 300 sq ft, but it's actually 110 sq. ft.
    No oven
    No freezer (it's called a "chiller," and is the top door of the mini-fridge, but does not get cold enough to keep things frozen).
    Advice to owner:
    Tear down the building and start over, or find someone who's willing to put in the work to make this place liveable.
