Great Super, unhelpful management company
Pros
The super is very helpful, responsive, and friendly Never had any pest problems in the unit (but also never had an exterminator come and also saw a mouse in the entryway)
Cons
Packages broken into or stolen on occasion. Bad hot water- sometimes the shower will never heat up or it will go cold mid-shower Heat isn’t so great There is a resident who smokes cigarettes out of the second floor stairwell window and it makes the whole stairwell stink. The management company hardly exists. They are difficult to get in contact with. The few times we did contact them, they have been “okay” but they walk the line of being sketchy and they typically approach building issues with patchwork solutions.
Advice to the owners
Get some rugs for the hallway to help keep the floors from being a mess in bad weather
I did 19 Years Here
Pros
Great location before all the morons came to the Lower East Side. I got my security deposit back.
Cons
Building was dirty and neighbors weren't covid compliant when the lockdown went into effect, always had to pass a guy coughing and smoking on the stairwell in order to leave. Walls were thin, neighbors were loud. Bedbugs went through the building twice. After hurricane Sandy rats chewed through the walls under my sink. I dealt with the same leaking pipe in the wall that flooded my apartment 3 or 4 times. The super drinks a lot and is basically worthless.
