No real complaints!
Former Tenant
Pros:
Amazing location, near Central Park and the subway. Clean laundry room in the basement (3 washers & 3 dryers, card operated). No maintenance or pest issues while we’ve been here. Overall, a very nice place to live! Bonus: our renewal offer did not raise the rent at all!
Cons:
Not much natural light in the living space or one bedroom. Construction across the street, so the street-facing bedroom had noise issues. We do hear our neighbors’ kids and pets occasionally. No control over the heat, and the apartment was often too hot in the winter.

Thoroughly OK
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Super was very responsive
- Online payment
- Cheap (at the time) rent
Cons:
- Super was generally rude (despite being responsive)
- Close to hospital, therefore generally loud
- The radiators are really old and loud
Advice to owner:
Renovate some of the units
