Good location for the price
Former Tenant
Pros:
Really close to the 1 train stop. Good restaurants a block up on Amsterdam and loved how close it was to Riverside park. Decent sized apartment for the price and an excellent, live-in super. Management was always responsive.
Cons:
Really need laundry in the building given that there aren't a ton of options nearby. Natural light in the units was pretty bad. The heat never felt like it was on in the winter.
