Pros:
The building is as advertised: clean, well maintained, with great amenities (though not usable during the pandemic)
Doormen, porters, maintenance staff are fantastic.
Never had a problem with bugs/rodents. Even the basement is clean.
Cons:
Management: it can be difficult to reach someone who can help you and oftentimes they act like they don’t want to help you.
Lock out: it costs them nothing for the doorman to lend you the spare key but they’ll charge you $50 for it.
Laundry machines in unit: very fickle, can take a long time to get them to start and they aren’t very powerful. This is a problem my neighbors echoed.
Roof is great but very limited lighting so not ideal for night time use.
Advice to owner:
Renters are paying a lot to live in these apartments and deserve to be able to easily reach staff who can help them address billing or property issues - many of the management staff could use a lesson in customer service (or perhaps the problem is with those at the top pushing profits over renter satisfaction)
