Bad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cool roof. Good location.
Cons:
Do not move here!!! We have had almost ten mice and dozens of roaches and management hasn’t done anything more than send an exterminator who did nothing but give us glue traps and leave. We have also had a leak in our ceiling for months that still has not been fixed all the way and still leaks every single time it rains. Also, they advertised a washer/dryer that doesn’t work and they haven’t fixed. It’s even smaller than the pictures and way way overpriced for a five flight walk up. Do not move here!
Advice to owner:
Hire better exterminators or stop renting apartments.

Keep away! Don’t live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
The neighborhood is nice, East 5th street is a quiet street.
Cons:
Mice, Roches, dust from ongoing construction, bad management. Cheap cabinets and materials used for construction. Heat is terrible during the winter, the heat is on and off, only 30% to 50% of the time is on.
Advice to owner:
Better communication, be responsible for the noise, dust, pest, and notice your tenet ahead.

Rats, Roaches and Reading Your Lease
Former Tenant
Pros:
The spot was well located and our super was incredibly responsive and easy to work with.
Cons:
Extremely overpriced for what you get and the building management company will never negotiate.
There were so many rats in our yard and on the streets that we couldn’t use our outdoor space - neighboring buildings would put out poison and the creatures would come to our yard to die. We also had a lot of roaches for a newly renovated apartment.
In the winter, the heat - which is provided by long water pipes in specific rooms - is mediocre at best and we spent a ton on extra blankets and heaters in the winter.
In addition, the property management company was and remains a nightmare to work with. While the super and admins are fantastic, management was difficult to work with and inflexible. Read your lease in full with these guys!!
