747 10th ave - a trade off for space
Former Tenant
Pros:
Front door staff are all super friendly and great! My apartment had great natural light. The apartment size is large for the cost / what you get in manhattan.
Cons:
1 of 3 elevators is almost always down, sometimes 2 at a time. Water shut downs are frequent and the water will come out brown after they shut it off. Management is not always reasonable - they'll charge you for small things but not provide any rent reduction when services like the dryers and gas are shut off for months.
I also suspect there is some sort of bad air or water in this building. I developed digestion issues while living here, but every time I leave my health issues resolve themselves and returns when I'm back in this building. My roommate did not experience this so I'm not saying it's definitely caused by this building, but after living here 3 years and experiencing the same patterns, it's highly probable.

What you can expect for the price
Former Tenant
Pros:
The amenities are great and the doorman is really friendly. The pool table and lounge area can be occupied even after the time it's open for which is great for hosting friends
Cons:
The trash chute was broken for a couple days causing a little pileup in the trash room but besides that it's all pretty good

Love the Place, Love the Doormen
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building is safe, the staff is friendly, and the maintenance is extremely quick!

Good value apartment

Apartment unit size is relatively big compared to other apartments in the area at similar prices. Water, electricity, and heat are all included, which makes the apartment really great value for what you are paying.

Elevator can be incredibly slow. Found cockroaches in apartment because a hole was not patched properly in our kitchen

Do not live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building staff are really nice!
Cons:
There are cockroach’s constantly after the rain. The gas did not work for 6+ months and was impossible to do laundry. Terrible and would not choose to live here again and would advise other people against it.

Former Tenant
Pros:
It was the nicest apartment I’ve lived in and if you’re looking for a place in Hell’s Kitchen I highly recommend. Also we had a massive balcony which was amazing.

The location wasn’t my preference, but again if you’re looking for something in that area I had no complaints.
Advice to owner:
None!
