Great Starter Apartment

Pros

Had to get through two doors in order to get into the building. Apartment door automatically locked when closed. Spacious living room and decent sized bedrooms. Bathroom was a little outdated, but still worked out well. Had high ceilings and lots of natural light. Kitchen was redone when we moved in. Lots of cabinet space, but small kitchen sink. Decent sized dishwasher.

Cons

Hallways were very echoey so you can hear people coming and going a lot of the time. One bedroom was right by the main doors so you constantly hear them opening and closing. Can hear mailman/ups/fedex come in to drop things off. Fridge was a little small, but it wasn't a big deal. The oven couldn't open all the way, but we made it work. Floors were a little slanted and creaked a lot. Only one closet in the one of the bedrooms.

East Village steal

Pros

Suspiciously cheap listings -- lived here for two years with no major issues and saved major money while doing so. Super accessible in EV and the super is very sweet once you get a hold of him. Nice view/light. Very much a soft spot for this apartment.

Cons

not super clean building -- even the apartment despite deep cleaning was impossible to be pristine -- old kitchen and bathroom. Had pests for a few weeks and was able to eradicate with help of management/pest control. Issues with boiler/water meant that we often had no water or no hot water with no notice for 48ish hours.
