Charming but needs updates
Pros
Beautiful pre war apartments and original details Friendly neighbors aside from one that lives pretty dirty They vacuum the hallway carpets every week Great location near central park
Cons
Rent increased an insane amount for an old walk-up apartment with no laundry in the building or an updated kitchen, although we had been living there for 3 years
Advice to the owners
Respect tenants that have been there awhile and have kept the apartment in good shape
Would have renewed if not for 40% rent increase
Pros
High end finishes in the kitchen and bathroom, stacked W/D and dishwasher, close to central park and the 4/5 express train at 86 street.
Cons
40% rent increase after one year, the building next door is being demolished so the scaffolding blocks two of the windows.
Advice to the owners
Turn down the heat in the winter - had to keep a window cracked all winter.
