Pros:
Water pressure is great. Our (c) openigloo neighbors are quiet and respectful. (c) openigloo
It’s a great location for (c) openigloo someone in their early 20s. (c) openigloo
The apartments are small, but (c) openigloo they do have pretty great (c) openigloo finishings. The counter tops are (c) openigloo granite, and the showers are (c) openigloo tiled and seem to have (c) openigloo been renovated recently.
Cons:
Management takes a little longer (c) openigloo to respond than I would (c) openigloo like. Handymen/Exterminators just show up (c) openigloo without any warning from management. (c) openigloo At least they are showing (c) openigloo up, though.
When we moved (c) openigloo in there was a pretty (c) openigloo serious cockroach problem. There was (c) openigloo no one living in our (c) openigloo unit for at least 2 (c) openigloo months before, so they had (c) openigloo plenty of time to call (c) openigloo an exterminator before we moved (c) openigloo in and blocked a lot (c) openigloo of the trim with our (c) openigloo furniture.
The heat doesn’t work (c) openigloo all that well. I’m not (c) openigloo one to usually complain about (c) openigloo that since I’d rather be (c) openigloo cold than too hot, but (c) openigloo on the coldest days this (c) openigloo winter, it was 45 degrees (c) openigloo in my room in the (c) openigloo morning, which is tough.
When (c) openigloo we were looking for apartments, (c) openigloo we saw that this building (c) openigloo said it had “Laundry in (c) openigloo Building”. This was simply not (c) openigloo true. The same management company (c) openigloo manages a few buildings on (c) openigloo this block, and the “Laundry (c) openigloo in building” was actually a (c) openigloo block away, and are quite (c) openigloo expensive.
The trash situation could (c) openigloo be better, as we have (c) openigloo to walk half an avenue (c) openigloo to throw our trash away. (c) openigloo That may just be the (c) openigloo consequences of living on an (c) openigloo Avenue rather than a street (c) openigloo in NYC.
Advice to owner:
Remove the “Laundry in building” note when offering these apartments. This is simply not true.
