Former tenant·9 months ago

Lovely neighborhood in LES

Pros

low rise building, only three apartments in this building - location is great and quiet, close to subway and groceries / chinatown

Cons

only con is the walk up, but it’s not that terrible either - heating is central heating so it gets too hot and you can’t control it in the winter

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Nice little complex, mostly owners

Pros

Most people own their units, so care for the place and each other Rent from an actual person! Very very quiet Optional monthly exterminator visits Private courtyard Steps from East River

Cons

Heat is terrible - have to use space heaters all winter so it's not really accurate that HHW is included - coned bills are high. PM company never gave me back my move in deposit despite the LL asking repeatedly Condo board won't allow renters into the parking lottery Intercom system always broken

Advice to the owners

Fix the heat :)
