7 West 87th
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location, elevator, dishwasher, laundry in building
Cons:
Management is horrible in too many ways and doesn’t respond until you keep pestering them. Rats and roaches in the staircases, bed bugs.
Advice to owner:
To look at your tenants as more than just a paycheck.

Avoid at all costs! I wish someone would’ve told me this!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Incredible location right next to Central Park. Seemingly beautiful apartment. Nothing is worth the horrible management.
Cons:
Seriously, avoid at all costs. Living in this apartment felt like a horror movie that never ended. First of all I am a very clean and I personally would describe myself as a bit of a clean freak so when I started seeing cockroaches in the building I freaked out a bit. The building uses “their own pest guy” and refuses to hire anyone else to solve problems which is a huge red flag. I experienced bed bugs in the apartment and many other units did as well which was a living hell. I reported the issue multiple times and management never solved the problem after months of “treatments”. I also found a rat in the apartment which became my breaking point. The management of this building is so horrible I’m warning anyone reading this to avoid at all costs. Signing the lease to this place was one of the worst decisions I’ll make in my lifetime.

Stay Away!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Beautiful neighborhood and amazing location.
Cons:
Where to begin…
We had bedbugs in our unit (on the 4th floor) for months. Management was incompetent and incapable of getting rid of them despite the rigorous precautions and prep work that we did on our end to get the apartment ready for treatments. We eventually walked away and broke the lease because we couldn’t live with the problem any longer.
One morning we found a rat in our kitchen sink.
There were cockroaches throughout the building.
Building was old and dingy - was not cleaned regularly enough.
The “laundry room” had extremely old machines that often didn’t work (at one point none of the washers worked).
Management company was absolutely terrible. Unresponsive and extremely rude when they finally did respond.
Wish we would’ve looked up reviews on HRM Management Corp and the building before signing the lease because they are horrendous (google, yelp, open igloo).
Advice to owner:
How do you sleep at night knowing the conditions of the properties that you manage.

Good enough, nothing exceptionally great or bad. Good deal for the location
Former Tenant
Pros:
The location is great, right near the park and the subway. There’s laundry in the building (though 2/3 machines are always broken). They have an optional pest control company come once per month
Cons:
Laundry machines break often or fill up with coins and it can take awhile to get them fixed. Generally very slow response time if you have a maintenance request. The heat blasts in the winter to the point that I keep my windows open but that’s better than not enough heat. The communal spaces aren’t cleaned very often and they’ve been saying that they’re going to redo the entry way/mail space for my whole time here
Advice to owner:
Better response time on laundry room and all other maintenance
Over 2 years ago
Good location but maintenance issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to Central Park, laundry and elevate in the building, close to the subway
Cons:
Took forever to get things fixed and there were often roaches. The elevator was out all the time, though they did finally replace it.

100 feet from your door to the B/C trains
Former Tenant
Pros:
Very close to the subway station and Central Park is right on the corner. Apartments have good distribution and full size kitchen is definitely a plus.
Cons:
Management is not responsive.

Great deal at a cost.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location and generally will priced for the area.
Cons:
Terrible upkeep. "Live-in Super" has a full time job as a super in another building and never takes care of things. I had a mice problem for 1.5 years (not the only one in the building that had mice... They are everywhere in the building). Building also infested with bugs. Thin walls / ceiling / floors. A washing machine was broken for months without getting fixed. Building management is avoidant and unresponsive. If you get a great deal, it may be worth it, but beware!
