if you get a good deal, it’s a okay place to stay for few years
Former Tenant
Pros:
-Location is great, close to lots of things.
-started rent is affordable.
-return the deposit back without hassle. As long as you clean it up.
Cons:
-it’s not very clean, some neighbors don’t know how to throw their garbage.
-landlord is very GREEDY, will hike the rent super high, (in our case, was rising 75%)
-super are lazy, very slow repair.
-heavy second hand smoke. If you don’t like, try to avoid this building.

Awful, disgusting, dangerous
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to main shopping areas (union square and herald square are about 20 minutes away)
Cons:
Drug addicts linger in and around the building, homeless sleep in the staircase. Crime gets reported but nothing changes, roach problem, rat problem, people pee out their windows..
Advice to owner:
Get night security!
