Hell hole in Inwood
Former Tenant
Pros:
Its hard to think off, cheap rent. Hot water sometimes, elevator works sometimes
Cons:
Drug dealers on 3fl, 1st floor, and the basement. Super rents out the boiler room, storage room to semi homeless people, Also trash on the floors, elevator and stairs. It’s a zoo. Wait, the blasting music on Friday-Sunday nights...Laundry room is really another issue, 4th July it’s a firework display on the roof top displays by the supers son! Wait, sorry the roaches and mice! 
Advice to owner:
You really need to invest in better super to manage the place. It’s became a dump
