Would not recommend
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Short walk to 125th 1 subway stop.
- Close to a few good restaurants and bars.
- Bodega next door has good sandwiches and a cute cat.
- Close to a few good restaurants and bars.
- Bodega next door has good sandwiches and a cute cat.
Cons:
- Radiators are so incredibly noisy that it’s impossible to sleep through the night, and the super refused to do anything about the problem.
- Half of the radiators spewed dirty brown liquid when turned on. The super came several times, and at no point was the issue fixed, meaning half of the radiators could not be turned on during the winter.
- There was a leak in the bathroom ceiling that was causing the wood to rot and mold. The super was contacted several times and several work orders were filed. Instead of addressing the leak and mold, the super plastered and painted over it. Inevitably, the leak would destroy the plaster and the mold would continue to grow. This happened several times, and the leak/mold remained unaddressed upon moving out.
- Upon move in, the cabinet underneath the bathroom sink was covered in mold.
- No ventilation fan in the bathroom.
- Dryer is incredibly inefficient and takes several cycles to dry clothes. It would also stop mid-cycle, displaying an error message. Clothes would come out still wet but smell burnt. The dryer would also release significant amounts of steam. Upon contacting property management about a potential blockage in the vent causing these issues, a maintenance man came, cleaned the dryer but not the vent, and left.
- No package receptacle in lobby, so packages were not secure.
- Living room window did not lock. After filing work orders, the property manager claimed they would send someone to fix it. It was never fixed.
- The real estate agent that manages the listing when the property goes on the market is incredibly unprofessional. After stating she would give 24 hours notice for every showing, she failed to give even 12 hours notice a few times. She showed up at the door completely unannounced once. She has poor communication skills, leaving tenants off of emails regarding showing notices.
- Upkeep of the stairs and lobby was not the best.
- Cockroaches.
- No AC.
- Front doorknob was not secure. The knob actually came off the spindle several times, and the super had to be asked multiple times to replace it.
- Noisy subway.
- No counter space in kitchen.
- Kitchen appliances are narrow. Standard sized baking sheets do not fit in the oven.
- Bathroom sink leaks and drains slowly.
- Mold in shower.
- Faulty light switch in bathroom.
- There are a few people who ask for money that frequent the area. Two of these men get very aggressive.

Can't hear myself think
Former Tenant
Pros:
Good condition, good location, W/D in unit
Cons:
Really hot all year round (even in the winter), and if you have a bedroom facing the street the noise will drive you absolutely insane. The 1 train comes by frequently and it is LOUD. Combined with the street noise and sirens, I couldn't possibly take more than one year of it.
The rooms are also quite small.

It's decent for someone with a student budget
Former Tenant
Pros:
-Laundry in unit
-Water pressure was great
-The super (once I managed to get their number) was really kin, helpful, and usually fast at responding if they are close to the building.
-Never had any issues with my packages being stolen, though it happened occasionally to a few other residents.
-Bathroom pretty modern.

-Bathroom pretty modern.
Cons:
-Cockroaches. The fact that the apartment sits on top of a block of restaurants is fact enough that you will probably have pests. Only saw cockroaches every so often (2x/week) and only in the kitchen but it was enough to bother me. Management did send pest control but it didn't help.
-Walls are pretty thin so you will definitely hear your neighbors.
-Heating: my radiator barely worked.

Advice to owner:
Be more responsive to your residents and give us the super's number when we first move in.
