You get what you pay for
Former Tenant
Pros:
The rent is very cheap for Manhattan studios. And the super is - as others have said - one of the nicest and friendliest people in NYC. The garbage system is pretty good, and the water pressure in the building is surprisingly robust.
Cons:
The owner (AJ Clarke) and the property manager (Angela Cronk) are pretty hands off. The building has lots of German cockroaches. You can try everything - baits, traps, sprays, etc. but it doesn’t help. The building has an exterminator who comes twice a month who sprays a residual pesticide, which helps a little, but only temporarily. No laundry in the building. The 38th and 2nd intersection is also always a mess, and there’s constant honking that you can hear no matter what.
Advice to owner:
Give the super (Peter) a huge raise, and find a way to fumigate the entire building to try to sort out the roach problem.

You get what you pay for.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet neighbors, generally friendly people, got to know a few of them. Never had a noise issue, no parties, etc. Super lives next door and is THE BEST person I've ever met. He is an angel who made living here tolerable. He works really hard. I miss him.
Cons:
Building is basically falling apart from the inside. Some units are much worse than others. Random half-day water shutoffs (like literally no running water) every 3-ish months for emergency repairs. Hallway smells really bad, partly because of how old it is, and also because a hoarder lives here and her apartment radiates a foul odor. The entire building is infested with cockroaches and you WILL see them everywhere in your apartment, no matter what floor, even though the exterminator comes twice per month. I can't stress this enough; they come from every direction. Floors are impossible to make look nice no matter how much you try. However if you need a repair or have a leak the super is ON IT.
Advice to owner:
Give the super a massive raise, he's the only reason this building is still standing.
