“Pros: Rent stabilized, people live there a long time, there's pest control, the people are nice and friendly, it's not too loud, there is laundry in building. Cons: The apartment I'm in had rats 2 winters ago and has had moths even though pest control comes once a month. The laundry in building has the smallest drums I've ever used, even after 3 cycles my laundry. The super is very nice, but isn't always easily accessible or responsive Advice to landlord: Get better washers.”
— 974 ST NICHOLAS AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Responsive super Spacious Cons: Uneven floors Unresponsive management company Absurd rent hikes (this place is not rent controlled) No heating in the winter go check the 311 site if you don't believe me Barely any hot water or you have to wait 5mins for it to get hot Garbage piles up very fast Only one working washing machines for almost a year Advice to landlord: Grossly overcharging for rent”
— 974 ST NICHOLAS AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Dishwasher and big windows. Depending where you are in the building you can get a lot of light in your apartment. Rooms can be huge Cons: Can sometimes smell in the hallway. Packages get stolen and there’s been issues with the front doors. Doesn’t get very hot in the winter, you will need heaters. Walls are thin and the water pressure/heat can be an issue.”
