Roach motel hell
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building cleanliness is maintained well. I usually see the porter mopping daily. Water pressure is great. Package lockers are convenient.
Cons:
The building has a roach infestation. Kitchen cabinets are all peeling. I can hear practically everything from my neighbors upstairs, walking and talking.
Advice to owner:
Take care of the roach problem

I would move back!
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building staff is really great—I adore the super and the porters who work in the building. The building is always very clean. I was impressed that the owner spends money on upgrades for the building: they bought new washers and dryers (very nice ones, they have an app that communicates with your phone and all payments can be via the app instead of coins or a laundry card) while I lived there. They also added a package locker. There is a fob for entry at the front door, which is convenient. The apartment was well-maintained and was very clean when we moved in.
Cons:
It's an older building so unless you are on the top floor, you will definitely hear your neighbors walking around over your head. Sometimes it is a little chilly in the winter. They heat the building to the legally required temperature, but not any warmer. The renovations that were done the unit (kitchen and bathroom) were a bit rushed I think; the tile in the bathroom floor was never quite right (floor I believe was not leveled correctly) and the grout crumbled all the time.
Advice to owner:
The folks who redid the bathroom before our move-in didn't do a great job, and we were stuck dealing with their subpar/rushed work for years. Maybe allot more time for improvements in the units between tenants.
