Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Great Apartment, some disturbance

Pros

the unit itself is great and spacious. also in a great area with access to subways and the park

Cons

there is a disturbing bieghbor in the building who is often loud and smokes inside. the building management is also not the best

Former tenant·8 months ago

Typical poorly managed prewar

Pros

Owner didn't bother you if you didn't bother them. I put up a fake wall, I got a new pet, and the owner didn't want to hear about it (in a good way). The size of the apartment was good and it's well priced. Many of the neighbors have been there a long time and are very sweet.

Cons

Gas broke for nine months, and took the owner eight of those months to give us a hot plate (which they then took back immediately once the gas was fixed). Constantly had to deal with the fire department because of that. The landlord said building manager are scummy, always nickel and diming you. I had a few rodents and cockroaches via the pipes, which I took care of on my own. Apartment is in disrepair.
