    You get what you pay for
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    In-unit laundry, 4 full bedrooms, roof access
    Cons:
    Inability to solve almost all problems in the 2 years spent living in the unit.
    Over 1 year ago
    Good and bad

    Ok first apartment as a newbie in the city.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location! Hell's kitchen can be busy and overwhelming but thankfully it is close to almost all train lines and moving around is very easy. Central park is also a 20min walk from home and that made things a lot better. The apartment is spacious and the bathrooms are in great condtion.
    Cons:
    The fridge is fairly small and on hotter days it does not keep things cold. The super is hard to reach and sometimes takes weeks to come fix a lightbulb. The building is owned by a large management company and they care very little about the issues that arise during your lease.

    Great place; not so great management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Apartments have new appliances and have nice finishes.
    Cons:
    Usually took a few tries before getting any issue responded to.
    Advice to owner:
    Better responsiveness.
