Great place to live!

Pros

Laundry in basement, unit is big and reasonably priced, dishwasher, close to subway, close to things to do.

Cons

Laundry in unit would’ve been perfect, some of the neighbors can be a little loud but that’s just NYC.

Advice to the owners

Keep up the good work!

Convenient but loud

Pros

Attentive and professional management company, nice super, elevator, laundry in the basement, close to many subway lines

Cons

Occasionally the noise from Amsterdam Ave was extremely loud. A couple times a month there might be a loud block party on the corner that would randomly start at 11 pm on a Sunday night.

Advice to the owners

Clean building vents.
