Great building, terrible location
Pros
The building was clean and well maintained, even though the area outside of the building was really dirty. I love our super, and our apartment neighbors are great. The management was fairly responsive, sometimes we would have to email multiple times to get information about our lease, but they always responded to an emergency maintenance request. Everyone was always polite.
Cons
The walls are pretty thin and you could hear a lot of noise from the event space at odd hours. Unfortunately, there is nothing the management company could do when we reached out. They were also not super well informed (or maybe just not willing to share?) regarding HPD rules, especially when it came to lease takeover/breaking our lease.
Advice to the owners
Provide clear instructions for how to conduct lease takeover in an HPD unit
Nice on the outside but just average inside
Pros
No one uses the gym so it’s always free to use Apartments look pretty decent Bathrooms look nice
Cons
Owners are non responsive to issues like broken washing machines Some weights have been stolen from the gym and the management company doesn’t care Doors are paper thin Walls are paper thin Some neighbors are very dirty leading to roaches
Advice to the owners
Take care of the small things and try to find solutions for things as opposed to sitting back and doing nothing
