Tenant reviews of buildings managed by Charles Hartman show a mixed experience. Positive notes emphasize well-maintained interiors, responsive management, and good heating, pest control, and water pressure in some buildings. Convenient locations and spacious units are also appreciated.

Former tenant·42 minutes ago

beautiful building in a busier area of harlem

Pros

- lighting of the apartment - space + amenities - location (3 blocks from 2/3 train, whole foods, target, trader joe's)

Cons

- garbage area is an eyesore - particularly noisy area, very easy to get woken up at night if you're a light sleeper - expensive utilities

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Not worth the price

Pros

Laundry in unit, spacious high ceilings, central air and heating

Cons

The super is completely unhelpful, the applicants are all falling apart, the windows aren’t insulated, the electrical bill will go up by $100 if you use the oven twice, the “secure code to get into the building” doesn’t even work.

Advice to the owners

Hire a super who knows what they are doing, lower your rent prices, and be up front about what tenants are signing up for before they pay for this over priced apartment
