    Some issues but overall fine
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super is very helpful, large amount of space for a decent rent. Shared laundry room on each floor.
    Cons:
    Had a baby roach infestation once that I had to tackle myself. Appliances are way outdated and kitchen cabinet hardware is also falling apart (the broker had told me the kitchen cabinet knobs were “just replaced”). Laundry machines malfunction on occasion and have ruined some of my clothes. Heat gets way too hot in winter and no way to control.
    Advice to owner:
    Consider updating the building and unit amenities.

    Happy so far
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious, big bedroom, super friendly porter and responsive super
    Cons:
    Heat isn’t on often enough, turned off at night and for some reason my bedroom heat isn’t as high as kitchen and living room

    Spacious, a little far from fun things, thin walls
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great super, lots of space (huge unit) for $, rent stabilized. Good building maintenance overall, W&D always working, super responsive to weird issues (eg strong smell of weed in the bathrooms from vent sometimes). Monthly bug spray treatments available.
    Cons:
    Thin wall (loud obnoxious neighbor sex and parties sometimes). Baby roaches in the kitchen, had to purchase anti-roach supplies myself from Amazon to get it in control.
