Reviews (3)

Over 3 years ago

Small, nice, and the sound carrie

Former Tenant

Pros:

Good location and more or less recently renovated. Backyard access. Big windows.

Cons:

Thin walls means sound carries and it can get noisey. Washer/dryer never seemed to work quite well. Neighbors left something to be desired.

Advice to owner:

Nice units, but overpriced for what is worth. Also more regular maintainence of the common areas.

Over 3 years ago

Good but small

Former Tenant

Cons:

Only con was how small the 2 bedroom was

Over 3 years ago

Poor Management

Former Tenant

Pros:

Quiet building with friendly neighbors and a nice backyard

Cons:

Poor management practices, including illegal rent raises, difficulty in renewing (long breaks/delays in office communication), and refusal to return security deposit
No tenants have lived there for over 2 years and it's very telling of their business practices

Advice to owner:

Be more communicative with your tenants and adhere to NYC rental laws
