    Would live here again
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Convenient to Columbus circle and Hell’s Kitchen.
    Cons:
    The water gets extremely hot. Never turn it all the way hot or it will scald your hand. The hallways could use some repainting; lots of scuffs and dents.
    Advice to owner:
    Keep up the good job.
    Over 2 years ago
    No fuss no frills
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    -responsive super gets things fixed (even a broken window and door buzzer system)
    -neighbors smile in the hallways, aren’t too loud, and don’t complain about my kids/dog
    Cons:
    -entrance is very rundown and often littered by people leaving nearby bars
    -loud due to 9th Avenue nightlife
    -older building so indoor air quality seems poor; prior mold issue
    -occasional roaches despite active pest control
    -no washer/dryers
    -no central air
    -basic appliances (e.g., fridge has no ice maker)
    Advice to owner:
    Lower rent further to reflect market changes or upgrade units/building
