Way overpriced for what it is
Pros
Location is amazing, love the layout of my apartment, super is nice.
Cons
Ac and heat are not great. They turn the ac on and off at the worst times. In the fall there is a month of no ac and it’s so hot you truly can’t stay in the apartment. The heat doesn’t work. You have one temperature and you either keep the fan on in the unit until your apartment is hot and then turn it off. It’s not automatic so I usually put the “fan on” on the unit to release the heat an hour before bed and then turn it off so I don’t wake up sweating. It’s very dry so make sure you get a humidifier. The building definitely has a bug issue even though they don’t admit it. I have had a moth problem twice in the past 4 years. The first time I spoke with my super and he warned me they won’t do anything so I hired an exterminator. The second time I spoke with my super and he told me he also has moths but he’s used to it lol. I contacted the building and they told me it’s not a building problem even though they are in the hallways and laundry room. They do a terrible job renovating the apartments. The apartment next to me was being renovated and thankfully I was working from home that day because sparks of fire went in between the floor and wall into my apartment and almost set my carpet on fire. I banged on the door and emailed management and they came in and literally glued the seam between the floor and wall as a solution. My super and I are friendly and he told me that a few apartments that were recently renovated have tilted cabinets because they do such a bad job but because it’s the west village people don’t care and rent them anyways. Oh and the walls are extremely thin. I can hear peoples zoom meetings next door.
Advice to the owners
Spend more money for higher quality renovations so you dont have to constantly redo apartments and please take care of building pests including moths
Bank street review
Pros
Location is amazing, cobble stone street
Cons
Elevator got stuck in many times, laundry in basement and heating didn’t always work.
Advice to the owners
Get a new elevator. Got stuck 6 times in one year and complained every time and still no new elevator.
