Pest Ridden Hellhole
Pros
Cheap rent, nice space, no issues with heating, friendly neighbors
Cons
It should have been clear before we moved in that the halls smelling faintly of rotting fried chicken was a bad sign, but unfortunately we missed the red flags. The halls are filthy, and as spring came, every pest in New York started to appear. We’re talking roaches by the hundreds despite cleanliness and extermination efforts, mice, bedbugs, centipedes… just became impossible to deal with. Horrible response from management and took months to get official exterminators in. Frequent lack of hot water to boot. This place became an unsanitary nightmare and management made it worse.
Advice to the owners
Get proper exterminators in and maintain the cleanliness of hallways
Don’t live here
Pros
The apartments are nice and relatively affordable considering what you’re getting and the location.
Cons
The management is awful. Heat and hot water are hit or miss.
Advice to the owners
Respond to your tenants and fulfill your obligations under state and city law.
