    48 Hester Review
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good location and elevator is a great perk
    Cons:
    Apartment has had an issue with cockroaches ever since move-in. The live in super can also be very hostile towards tenants. Neighbors can be loud, once had to deal with neighbors shouting and banging doors for hours in the hallway. Elevator is often broken so don’t count on it being available.
