220 avenue A
Pros

Cons
the stairs are so treacherous and heat is suffocating in the winter
Solid East Village Apartment
Pros
The building was clean and quiet. Neighbors were normal. The location was great for anything in East Village - also right next to the 1st Ave L Train stop so could go anywhere quickly. Landlord responded to requests quickly.
Cons
It was a 5-floor walkup. I had to walk by the trash to get to my side of the building. Nonexistent living rooms in the apartments.
