ALL THE PESTS
Pros
- Usually easy to find available laundry machines (even though only 4 washers and 4 dryers). Laundry card is through HiRise Laundry – you could reload it in the basement, machine took $5+ bills. - Lots of trash bins outside.
Cons
- Management is only reachable by phone business hours on weekdays - GERMAN ROACHES!!!!! POURING OUT OF THE WALLS. Impossible to get rid of them, even with the exterminator coming weekly, Advion gel bait, glue traps, etc. The kitchen and bathroom were constantly overrun with roaches on the counters, stove, fridge, cabinets. The garbage chute was also infested. Ground floor apartments had it even worse – kitchen drawers were literally filled with them. - Sewer flies too! Would find a few dead ones on the floor every week. And always a few in the hallways. - Did not find mice in my apartment but it was a frequent complaint from other tenants. - Rent has to be paid by check in the mail (with a rent slip that you're given at lease signing), or by dropping off at their office on W 73rd. - Elevator is very old, slow, seems on the brink of breaking down. - Always a huuge pile of packages in the hallway - Plumbing fixtures are very old. Kitchen faucet didn't swivel and there was no sprayer
Advice to the owners
Start breeding house centipedes, otherwise this place will forever be infested with roaches
