Great Landlord, some bugs
Former Tenant
Pros:
The landlords for this building are incredibly personable and responsive which is rare for New York landlords. If there’s a problem they’ll answer on a Saturday night to fix it.

The building is beautiful and has a ton of old charm to it. Overall it’s beautifully maintained and the landlords are also really flexible about what you need in terms of a lease or ability to pay rent.
Cons:
There is a roach problem in the building. An exterminator comes once a month which keeps them out of the units, but there’s still a good amount of them in the basement. The building could use some quality of life repairs that might help make it a less welcoming environment for them to be in.

The heat in the winter sometimes kicks off and the old windows let a lot of cold air in, I like the charm of the old school windows more than this bothers me but it could be an issue for some. No central air in the summer.

Hallway sometimes has a funky smell in it.
Advice to owner:
If you can, renovate the basement and take more measures to prevent roaches from coming up from the sewers in there.
