This unit seemed nice—it has a dishwasher and a washer/dryer but the washer/dryer came broken so don’t be fooled. The only good thing is that the unit is rent controlled.
Cons:
No hot water Bed bugs in the building that were NOT stated in the lease like they’re supposed to be. The absolute rudest and unresponsive management Washer/dryer came broken We were approached by a non profit to help us because this management is so notoriously bad. When I say run away from this unit and anything managed by the same company, I mean sprint. Plus neighbor blasts music for hours on end into the early hours of the night
Advice to owner:
Stop scamming people and actually take care of your properties

Don’t Rent Here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Never had issues with stolen packages. In-unit laundry. Great distance from Riverside, Morningsids, and Central Park and the 1 and B/C. Good stores down on Amsterdam Ave, pretty chill area.
Cons:
Hot water issues almost every other week. Unfortunate combination of an old structure + bad maintenance throughout the years. Badly constructed in kitchen & bathroom - gaping holes in the cabinets in certain areas like bottom of bathroom cabinet & under the kitchen sink. Bathroom is tiny, making everything more prone to mold - management won’t fix vent in bathroom and say to just open window. Major mice & cockroach issues. Listing the apartments with no-broker’s fee guarantees that they will always have people clambering to get in (and means they don’t have to fix maintenance issues long-term bc people never renew so the new people go in blindly).
Advice to owner:
Replace the boiler!
