Loved my unit, hated the building
Pros
Loved my apartment; a spacious studio with ample closet space, including a walk-in. Amazing lighting. Beautiful floors. Great neighbors. Super close to the 2/5 and several bus lines. Rent stabilized.
Cons
The building is always filthy; garbage rooms are super disgusting and have attracted a legion of roaches; the building is infested. Neighbors mentioned having mice, although we never saw one. On three separate occasions we found a bed bug in our apartment as well although management did handle it, you had to catch it as proof. Super is pretty much non-responsive.
Advice to the owners
Get a Porter who is actually going to keep the building clean, especially the garbage rooms.
