Doing the Bare Minimum
Pros
The building is basic, no frills.
Cons
Apartment listings for this building are typically false or heavily exaggerated. The listing for my unit stated central air, brand new appliances, brand new elevator, and live in super. None of these things are true. I've been here less than a year and we are on our third super (who does not live in the building). The elevator is like a death trap - I have no idea how it has managed to pass inspection. Update - DOB recently shut down the elevator. The heat and hot water go out constantly. It is impossible to get in touch with management, and the super lives 30+ minutes away and does not work on the weekends. Rent is incredibly overpriced for what you get. The hot water frequently goes out for extended periods of time. It is impossible to get in touch with anyone. The elevator also breaks down frequently.
Advice to the owners
Be honest in your apartment listings and take pride in your building.
