    Hospital housing - great for the price
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Subsidized housing. Affordable rent. Decent food options.
    Cons:
    Finishings aren’t the best, water pressure can be high without a regulator. Small things. Train access at Columbus circle can be annoying.
    Advice to owner:
    None

    Actually no cons. Great place to live

    Grimy and small
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good location / For us it was subsidized by an institution so rent was below market price.
    Cons:
    We had roaches infestation throughout our stay there. No matter how much you cleaned, it always felt dirty. Very small restroom.
    Advice to owner:
    Get it renovated. Hasn’t been touched since the 1970s it’s my guess.

    Elevator problems and variable rent
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Renovated units are much cleaner and nicer than the non-renovated units
    Great location
    Cons:
    Rents are highly variable
    Elevator maintenance often means 1 working elevator and wait times >15 minutes
