All 5 tenant reviews.

“Pros: Heat and hot water always work. Management is decently responsive, even though you may have to ask a couple times. No bug issues except the occasional beetle (3rd floor). Cons: The lobby and stairways are always dirty and sometimes smelly. People sometimes smoke in the lobby/stairway”

“Unit 8 Pros: Really Great location Cons: Very Unresponsive Landlord Advice to landlord: Turn on the heat”

“Unit 12 Pros: Super spacious unit, it's surpsingly spacious for NY. Affordable rent. Updated appliances. Deep soaking tub in my unit. Hardwood floors. Cons: The building itself (entrance, lobby, stairwells, hallways) is very, very poorly maintained -- it's super dirty all the time, never cleaned up, the walls/ceilings are in a state of suspended construction. Management company is very slow to respond and address issues: lukewarm but no hot water for three months, cockroaches in our unit from day one that took forever to get an exterminator approved and scheduled to treat (roaches throughout the building, this is not a unit-specific problem). Advice to landlord: Please, please take better care of the building. It's a beautiful building, but the common spaces need to be swept and cleaned regularly and a good coat of new paint. Have ane exterminator treat the whole building for German roaches. Respond to emails from tenants in a timely and thoughtful manner.”

“Pros: The good thing is if you get your rent history, you'll probably see that apartments were illegally taken out of rent stabilization. Get the rent history and go to a lawyer, you may be able to lower rent. The neighbors are cool. Cons: The stairs were not properly fixef - it's a tin sheet over structural holes. There are occasionally large rodents, including squirrels, in the wall. Landlord harasses tenants, including coming to their doors at late hours and ignoring extermination requests. Really terrible landlords. Sue them and maybe they will comply with the law. If they have to testify, you can discredit them because they were found to have stolen large amounts in government subsidies - quick Google search. Advice to landlord: Start caring about humans.”

“Pros: Heat and hot water are included. Neighbors are friendly, good mix of young singles living together, multi-gen families and a couple elderly folks. Building is also a historic landmark. Units on the back overlook a great yard, but only one unit is allowed to access it. Cons: Landlords are certified scam artists who owe the federal government more than $2 million in stolen welfare benefits. Their money problems mean there’s no money to fix anything at the building. They also keep very limited business hours and are unresponsive on weekends for religious reasons. There have been emergency situations in the building where no one could reach the landlord or any representative of his because it was after sundown on a Friday. Advice to landlord: Make someone available for tenants to contact 24/7 in case of emergency. Stop the shenanigans with Con Ed, they know you did an illegal gas hook-up and they’re going to keep taking it apart every time they some inspect and see you put it back up. And if you can’t afford to fix even basic damage to the building, it’s time to consider selling. Maybe your assets are frozen because of your legal issues, but you gotta come up with something.”
