Good apartments for price point
Pros
Right by the 6 train. 5 minute walk to trader joe’s. 8 minute walk to whole foods. Lots of gym options in the area. Good price for the size of the apartments.
Cons
Most apartments have low sunlight. Tiny kitchens (disproportionate to size of apartment). Awkward layout.
Advice to the owners
An open kitchen might make the apartment feel bigger
Great building minus few issues
Pros
- Staff (doormen, handymen, etc.) are extremely nice, friendly and great at doing their job. - Noise has never been an issue. - It's clean for the most part. - Overall a safe place to live in a great area.
Cons
- The biggest issue I've faced is the heat vs. air conditioner. The heat comes on too early making the apartment insanely hot from Sept/Oct until it cools down significantly and April/May until the air conditioner is turned on. These 2-3 months of the year are miserable in the apartment. My apartment temperature goes up to 86 degrees during these months at times. - Can be some rodent issues here and there. Although the building maintenance is always helpful in this situation. - I wish the windows opened slightly more than they do.
Advice to the owners
The heating vs. cooling months need to be reconsidered. It's absolutely unbearable to have the apartment as hot as it becomes.
