Reviews

Former tenant·3 months ago

Management is Extremely Unprofessional

Pros

The building is relatively newly renovated

Cons

The finishes look nice but are cheap. Bathroom tile cracks and the grout in the shower fell apart. Peeling/flaking paint as well.

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Great first NYC apartment

Pros

Package room, very close to delis, coffee shops, good restaurants and take-out spots, roof access (sort of), and about a 5 min. walk to four different trains.

Cons

Smaller bedroom didn't have a window and I didn't know at the time it should've been marketed as a 2 bedroom FLEX. Very narrow stairwells made it hard to move in and out. Back units are not street-facing and so are very dark. Hot water in the shower runs out after 15 minutes so only 1 person can shower in the span of ~1 hour.

Advice to the owners
