Pros:
Front desk is really nice.
Cons:
I have extremely noisy neighbors that have refused to lower their music despite the several complaints and police reports. The building was at first responsive and supportive but they are now gaslighting me saying that they’ve spoken to my neighbors and that the neighbors have denied playing music and that they’ve moved their speakers. The noise has not stopped and it’s been causing severe mental issues that is effecting my health.
Update: I was able to break my lease but only after weeks of fighting with the building and laying out what my rights are as a tenant. Excruciating process.
No surprise here but getting my security deposit was a huge hassle. I had to, again, tell them what the law was to even get a response back.
Overall, it was the worst 6 months I’ve ever had living in New York City. DO NOT LIVE HERE.
Advice to owner:
Don’t gaslight your tenants. The neighbors are in clear violation of their lease by being a complete disturbance and nuisance. Stop dragging your feet and do something because the situation is just getting worse.
