2BR + office on W 109th
Former Tenant
Pros:
Conveniently located by Columbia's campus
Cons:
Roaches and Rats. The building has an exterminator come once a month to deal with the roaches but we still get 1-2 a week at least. At night the street outside from the apartment is always littered with rats
Advice to owner:
Pester the city about the rats

209 109th street
Former Tenant
Pros:
My apartment location , it’s near Columbia University , centrally located , amenities nearby, good transportation, safe neighborhood
Cons:
Corridors are filthy , walls not painted , steps are slippery people fall often , no response at all from super intended Loud and abusive neighbor , always fighting high, abusive neighbor. Lots of yelling and loud music on first . G neurally nice residents Too Many rats all over even on the walls , a high number of large rats outside , there are dead ones lying on the pavement, even people who walk past this building scream and run away from rats infestations . The staff argue when reporting damages , harass tenants. The management stands outside the building to harass tenants. They don’t fix even when begging them , writing to the management yield no positive results . Tom is lazy and acting so VIP? What is his job? Alexis is an abuser period, why is he always outside the building, does he ever work ? Always harassing people outside the building , manipulating HPD inspectors. This guy will cost the landlord millions from just litigation alone. Management like to open doors for strangers into the building without even a tenant knowing . There is no sense of ownership.
Advice to owner:
His or her staff is lazy , due to their laziness , repairs are not done in time causing violations. They dismiss tenants and highly disrespectful towards clients. If the management did their job well. When clients ask you to fix something just fix it before the involvement of the courts . The tenants are treated like students in a boarding school. He must speak with Alexis about being professional, respectful or fire this abuser . Why does Alexis must accompanies that do repairs , all he does is to record tenants with his camera. What’s do you do with the recorded content that he has on his personal phone. Is it even allowed to record us in our apartments? Train your staff professionalism, he don’t do any work and don’t respect clients , he verbally abuses clients , accuses clients for things he should be doing . Make sure clients throw trash accordingly , put more signs if you have to . I have more later
