Reviews

Former tenant·16 minutes ago

don’t expect much

Pros

for the most part, quiet building.

Cons

management and super are very slow to respond to anything (if they respond at all)

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Worst super

Pros

The management office responds to requests quickly. The unit has a washer and dryer

Cons

The building is extremely dirty. The super Harry is irresponsible - he will schedule appointments and will not show up, will tell you he will go get some tools and come right back and will disappear for hours or not return at all. He will only do the work after you complain to the management about him.

Advice to the owners

Please hire a new super
