Former tenant·9 months ago

Decent apartment for price, but still got some issues

Pros

* Renovated kitchen and bathroom * Laundry on each floor * Chill front desk staff * Location is close to many subway stations * Amazon delivers packages straight to door. Front desk looks over other packages

Cons

* Central A/C does not work * Shower drain is always clogged * No hot water in the winter or it takes 10+ mins to warm up, but then runs out after 2 mins * Leaky/running toilet * The trash chute is too small to take any normal size garbage bags so people leave it in the trash room for the super to collect, but leaving trash bags on the floor attracts pests * A few roach sightings, mainly after being away for a while. Not a regular issue though. * Very little sunlight if facing the courtyard * Slow ass elevator and it was broken for 3 months * Property management is not very responsive to maintenance requests. They say they will come take a look at things and they don't. Super is pretty responsive, but isn't given the necessary stuff from management to fix * A lot of tourist traffic on the street * Walls are super thin. I can easily hear neighbors TV from hallway

Good Management really well done!

Pros

Had AMAZING staff at the front door. Doormen we’re attentive and extremely helpful

Cons

Location - midtown west can be a bit of a mixed bag of personalities and individuals.
