Decent Place, Just Keep Your Space Clean

Pros

- quiet sunlit bedroom; can't hear street noise - nice management - weekly hallway cleaning - never seen a mouse - spacey 1 bedroom with high ceilings, perfect for one person - near east river plaza (costco, aldi, marshall's, planet fitness) - now accepts electronic payment

Cons

- there are roaches, but if you keep your space clean, they will not come into your apartment - walls are thin - 12 min walk to the 6 station - packages get stolen - intercom system works to buzz people in, but not to receive calls from the door
