3 Bedroom in the Heat of Harlem
Former Tenant
Pros:
I love the area and I loved my apartment.
Most of my windows would face the street so it was bright and filled with sunlight. My plants loved it. The wooden floors are amazing and we had plenty of storage space.

Cons:
But the apartment was in a bad condition when I moved in. I had to paint the whole apartment by myself because the old management was even worse than this one.
In the room facing the back of the building you could hear the rats screaming thru out the day and at night.
It’s a huge building which means there is a lot of trash, a lot of rats and a lot of cockroaches.
The super has three buildings. The poor man is over 65 years old and he works his ass off. The workload is just too high. And he is not a professional. The work he does around the apartments is good for a while but then it breaks quickly again.
The neighbours are not very considerate. Loud music or stumping around their apartment at 5 am, still wearing shoes was not something unusual.
In summer there would always be parties on the sidewalk.
It is almost impossible to receive packages in this building. The stuff always gets stolen. There were days where there were 5-10 ripped open boxes sitting in the lobby.
There is a camera in the hallway but it is not recording. The management just doesn’t care.

Advice to owner:
- get help for the super
- let professionals do work related to plumbing and fixing of issues that need a professional
- get the situation with the trash together
- get rid of the rats
- just get a safe space for the packages
- be not only responsive if it has to do with payments

An okayyy place to live
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great space for a one bedroom. Quiet neighbors. Near a Superfoodtown. Access to gym and in-building laundry. Great lighting and a cozy spot in Harlem.
Cons:
The super is friendly, but unreliable. I usually have to call management to light fire under his a**. No elevator. You have to take laundry and trash to another location of the building which is a hassle if you live above the 2nd floor. The application process was unnecessarily long and exhaustive. Management slow to respond to messages.
Advice to owner:
Improve responsiveness from the landlord and management!! Deadbolts should be guaranteed in all units.

Management is incompetent and non communicative
Former Tenant
Pros:
It’s a place to live
Cons:
Landlords are non communicative, non responsive, entryway is dirty and metal door rusting through, bad pest problems, they charge too much for rent for a rent regulated building,
Advice to owner:
Fix up building, talk to tenants more, clean up alleyway and charge less for laundry machines.
