Kim Tsoi

Tenants renting from KIM TSOI at 55 Hester Street appreciate the building’s cleanliness, community vibe, and convenient location near dining and transit. Management and landlords are generally responsive and kind, with well-managed garbage and effective pest control. However, multiple reviews note issues with high electric heating costs due to inefficient insulation and electric heat, resulting in steep utility bills. Maintenance challenges include prolonged roof construction, limited laundry facilities, occasional flooding, and a persistent bathroom odor problem. While rent increases have been significant, the building’s amenities and neighborhood appeal keep many recommending it, though some advise management to improve infrastructure and communication.
