Reviews

Former tenant·1 week ago

Homey pre-war community

Pros

It’s a lovely beaux arts building on a beautiful historic street; surprisingly quiet despite being a block west of the Mt Sinai emergency room (no ambulances go past because 17th st runs E-W). Elevator and laundry in building, all in working order. Nice thick soundproof walls and friendly neighbors!

Cons

Management sometimes needs to be bugged a few times to respond/deal with issues (so far, a broken overhead light and one mouse sighting that have now been fixed). Sometimes the trash and recycling piles up in the basement a bit much the day or two before trash day, but nothing super gross.

Advice to the owners

Invest in revamping your website (currently broken) and adding a digital portal for rent payments!

Pros

Cheaper rent for many reasons…

Cons

Mice infestation, frequent heat and hot water outages with little notice, basement is disgusting and mice ridden with open trash cans and cardboard boxes. Avoid at all cost
