Reviews

Former tenant·8 months ago

Good starter apartment

Pros

Fine location, large spaces

Cons

Loud. A guy outside would harass you

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Sleep deprived and unlawful security deposit practice

Pros

East village, good location and is close to college campuses. Large living room space, hence college kids' fav to throw parties?

Cons

No AC, and not sound proof at all. We had some shitty college kids neighbours who would not stop throwing parties and kicking soccer balls against our wall. But the worst part is the landlord of this property, who unlawfully asked for 2 months of rent for security deposit ( in which we did not know NYC law only allowed one-month) and did not return a single penny upon termination of the lease. Please please stay away from this property unless you like dealing with people who try to take advantage of tenants all the time.

Advice to the owners

don't withhold 2-month worth of security deposit
