    The Westport - Hell's Kitchen
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building management is very responsive. Staff are all very friendly and helpful. Building, fitness center, business center and outdoor rooftop and patio are always clean.
    Cons:
    The walls between apartments can be very thin and the sound can carry. There were times where we heard our neighbors even through the living room and into the bedroom.

    Wonderful apartments, just walk
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    super great management, all the doormen are so nice and helpful, package pick up was smooth and easy apartments always seem to be in good condition, well-maintained, and management is quick to respond a/c and heating is good, kitchens/bathrooms work well and rarely had issues all amenities well taken care of, in general this building and its units are in great condition
    Cons:
    no secret that it's a 10-15min walk to any nearest subway station, and for frequent commuters that can get a little annoying. living on the 8th floor, could hear louder traffic from the street, and 10th ave can get quite busy/loud the walls are pretty thick, but noise leaks from the doors well
    Advice to owner:
    i really enjoyed the breakfast events! but in general i think everyone's doing a great job
