Good no-frills Midtown apartment
Pros
Very convenient location. I really liked my apartment. My neighbors in building were really nice. Viking Property Management is solid and takes things seriously when you escalate to them. Rent increases were predictable $100-200 each year.
Cons
You're subjected to normal Midtown noise if you have a front-facing apartment. I had a mouse problem on the 5th floor and the exterminator would only come every other Saturday . The super was nice but sometimes brushed issues off. No laundry in building.
Affordable price, spacious, but the neighborhood is...
Pros
It is affordable, has quick responses from management and super, and looks dirty, but I didn't see any mouse. Transportation: You can go everywhere in NYC very easily. It is spacious for one person.
Cons
Noise, junky, random people you don't want to meet on the street.
