“Unit 21 Pros: Clean, safe, secure. Super is an 80 yr old puerto rican man who prides himself in keeping the garbage area tidy. Convenient access to L train and all the best spots in the East Village. Never had any pest issues and minimal maintenance concerns Cons: VERY LOUD on 1st Avenue. I've gone deaf from all the honking.”

“Pros: The location is amazing, very convenient. The super is live in which makes it easy if you have small issues with your unit, and he's very friendly and helpful. Cons: Management is a bit difficult to reach and doesn't accept venmo/zelle for rent payment which is a big inconvenience”

“Unit 22 Pros: LOVED the location, loved the sun, the super is really sweet and building is pretty clean and safe. The management also got back to us really promptly and it was really easy to live there. We also got our whole security deposit back! Cons: We had a mold problem on the ceiling where they “fixed” it by painting over the layers of mold— the paint then peeled away and fell on top of us and they had to re-paint. Probably such a health hazard We also had a cockroach problem + packages were literally alwayys being stolen.”

“Pros: The location next to the L line was great, and the apartment was really nice with big windows. It was a sturdy building with no leaking roofs or thin walls. Really great place. Cons: The temperature was always colder than NYC requirements and there was a lot of mold growing in the kitchen and bathroom. And packages constantly got stolen. Constantly.”
