Longtime resident here
Pros
-Landlord is reasonably communicative and responsive to requests -Good water pressure -Landlord has been amendable to renewal negotiations
Cons
-Heat can be hit or miss - timing tends to be weird where it is very hot at night and colder during the day if no sun to heat apartment -Does not help that the place tends to be drafty -Occasional cockroaches - nothing outside the NYC norm, but obviously upsetting when it happens. -Annual rent increases are significant, though as mentioned above, landlord has shown willingness to negotiate in good faith
