Occasional roach infestation, occasional problematic neighbors.

LOTS OF COCKROACHES
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent didn't go up by much while we were there
Cons:
LOTS AND LOTS OF COCKROACHES. Had a huge pest problem and Victor barely helped. One day, we had tons of roaches come out at once from the boiler room. Had to be in front of the door killing them non stop because they were all coming out. Victor offered to send someone in a couple of days. But we needed help RIGHT THEN because it was NON-STOP. Ended up getting someone that came an hour later and Victor didnt refund us.
Also, left the apartment in perfect condition and still found an excuse to not give us back our deposit. Horrible landlord.
Thin walls, you can hear the door of the lobby and ring of the elevator all the time.

Good building with some maintenance quirks
Former Tenant

Elevator building, with balconies. Adequantly maintained.

As good as the neighbors. An occasional unwelcome visit from cockroaches. (maybe twice a year)
Advice to owner:
More regular clean up

Terrible Management in an otherwise average building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Elevator worked fairly consistently. Trash are was usually pretty well organized.
Cons:
Bugs were a constant problem. The manager Victor might be the worst human in New York. Walls are thin.
Advice to owner:
Actually take care of the bug problem? Don't treat residents with open hostility?

Nice apartment terrible management
Former Tenant
Pros:
Large apartment, great location, with balconies, can manage own heat, street facing gets great light.
Cons:
The “super” does not actually live at or near the property and is very difficult to deal with, has entered apartments without permission, and is just shifty in general. Is a relative of the owner who you’ll never have contact with.
Love the apartment, not the management.
Advice to owner:
Get a real super for the building’
