Slummy disgusting apartment
Pros
Laundry in basement
Cons
Had mice, illegal bedroom, outlets painted over, management slow to respond, super that curses you out, generally filthy, fly strips hanging over laundry room
2 year stay
Pros
Topaz is a pretty established management firm it seems, so it’s relativity easy to get in contact with them and sort things out. Can be weird in the New York way of things, but ultimately fine. Location is great, rooftop is beautiful, and laundry (though a bit gross) in the basement. Felt safe and since we had an apartment at the back, was pretty quiet for an nyc apartment.
Cons
The super could be hard to get a hold of and was really unhelpful. Often made the problem worse instead of any better. Hallways are gross and rarely if ever cleaned, minus the ground floor which is cleaned semi frequently. Heating for roommates and neighbors sometimes did not to work, though it seems management has fixed this problem since the winter, at least in our unit.
