Awful experience. I would not recommend this building to anyone.
Pros
Rent is relatively affordable.
Cons
Noise level of neighbors and neighborhood. There was a gigantic hole in my ceiling and a flood in my bathroom for a month before it was repaired. Tiny garbage chutes.
Advice to the owners
Address your tenant’s concerns.
Safe, quiet, well- maintained building with good landlords
Pros
This is a quiet, safe, clean, warm place to come home to. The building is very well-kept and the landlords and staff are great people. If I were to move back to NYC, this is the first place I would call. Building: Exterior, lobby, hallways, and basement equipped with security cameras. Heat and hot water are great. 2 washers, 2 dryers in basement. Floors, lobby, stairs cleaned regularly, even the garbage chutes are cleaned annually(?). Exterminator comes monthly. Flyers are posted and/or notices distributed to each apartment regarding planned maintenance. Pets: I love dogs, but I love the quiet that comes from not having them in the building more. Landlord, Super: Management office is in the building and the superintendent lives on-site. Landlords are very approachable and reasonable. Office manager is very friendly and professional. Superintendent and his wife are lovely people.
Cons
Political endorsement signs posted outside building during campaign season.
Advice to the owners
Another washer and dryer would be great.
