Former tenant·Over 4 years ago

Good choice apartments

Pros

Management/ super extremely helpful

Cons

Location- I moved to Jersey

Former tenant·Over 4 years ago

It’s just ok

Pros

The A train is immediately upon exit. My packages haven’t been stolen in over a year, since creating a package room.

Cons

My floors were slanted. There was no sunlight in my apartment on the brightest days because every window faces other apartments. A refuse area is all that separates. Funky smells from the refuse pit. So not quiet. The neighbors like to shoot off fireworks...my dog will be forever traumatized. Overpriced. Medical offers on the first floor. Strangers being buzzed in all the time. Constant ringing of the buzzer. Calls drop inside.

Advice to the owners

Lower the rent to accommodate getting what you pay for.
