Pros
Decent roommates to make friends with
Cons
There is nothing fair or decent about this place! Ran by offshore scammers
Advice to the owners
Ethics and human decency
Okay for short term
Pros
If you want a cheap place to crash temporarily, either because you're just moving to nyc, or are here for a month or two, it's a good stable landing pad while you figure your stuff out, and the other people who stay here are usually pretty chill and nice. The 2nd floor that the live in apartment manager lives on is much nicer than the other two.
Cons
During the summer, the top floor is unlivable, especially in the windowless rooms, because of the heat. The fire escape trash cans had rats sometimes. Can be loud, but also you get what you paid for (at least if you're in one of the cheaper rooms -- if you're paying more, you have so much better deals elsewhere)
