Wouldn't rent here again
Pros
Location is good if you work in midtown. Lobby is freshly renovated. Apartment is spacious.
Cons
Building itself is very old and the structure feels dated. Apartments are poorly ventilated and feel stuffy despite the square footage, walls and ceilings are thin, and several neighbors (especially those paying lower prices in sponsored units) have no sense of respect for others' peace and quiet. The building has a serious roach infestation, and we see at least one or two roaches in our unit per week despite having sealed off multiple openings.
Advice to the owners
Hire an exterminator for the roach problem, and have strict requirements on tenants making noise, especially after quiet hours.
