A great place!
Pros
Management and live-in super were always responsive and very helpful. Apartment building is clean and well-maintained. Neighbors were friendly. Great, safe building/area and close to the subways/buses.
Cons
Apartment on the first floor experienced flooding (only happened twice in the 12 months we lived there), which would cause the water to be shut off in the apartments above. However, it would only be in sections of the apartment that would need to be shut off (ex. Could not use the kitchen sink, but it was okay to use the bathrooms) so it was not super inconvenient/did not affect us much.
Will not go back.
Pros
Close to train station/midtown. Multiple keys needed to get in the building.
Cons
It was a hassle getting my security deposit back. It took months of me emailing and calling until I finally said I was stopping by the landlord’s office. The old women in the building act like they own the place and are security. I am a woman of color and they frequently asked me if I lived there when approaching the door. The heat and AC rarely worked! I had to call the super weekly. Due to the restaurants next to the building, there are many rats outside on trash days.
Advice to the owners
Fix the heat and AC units! Give security deposits back on time!
