“Unit 2D Pros: - decent space for the price - very close to ACBD station (access to express train) - pets allowed for a fee - elevator Cons: - management is very unresponsive - had no heat for most of the winter - rats in the building (in the walls, in the basement, in my kitchen once) - trash management is not great, building often smells funny - didn’t get a laundry card for the laundry room in the basement for ~2 months Advice to landlord: be more responsive to issues, fix the heat”
— 707 ST NICHOLAS AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Very Close to the subway station. My unit is very quiet in the back of the building. Neighbors are friendly . No bugs Cons: Elevator seems to break down once every two months for a day or two. Rats can be heard in the trash area and occasionally in the walls. Does get a bit cold in the winter, windows need to be replaced, Advice to landlord: work on the rat issue and keep us warm in the winter”
— 707 ST NICHOLAS AVENUE · Manhattan“Unit 6C Pros: There's laundry in the basement; dishwasher in the updated units and landlord customer service is somewhat responsive Cons: - serious rodent problem; rat ran across my foot in the laundry room -laundry machines are always broken -SOMETHING is always broken -The elevator is flaky and is never cleaned -the building is not well maintained at all - the front door is currently broken -circle through supers with regularity”
“Pros: Good location, good sunlight on top floors. Cons: Neighbor constantly trying to start a fistfight and screaming in the hallway. Rodents and roaches in the walls, can hear them moving in the walls and ceiling at night and occasionally make it into the apartment. Whole building smells like garbage. Heat inconsistent, sometimes freezing and sometimes way too hot. Roof alarm is always getting set off and is like 100dB. Management unresponsive across the board. Advice to landlord: This could be a great place to live if you cared about it more and weren't just taking advantage of the people who live here.”
— 707 ST NICHOLAS AVENUE · Manhattan“Pros: Newly renovated apt was nice. Laundry in basement. The super was sweet (even though it took him way too long to do anything) Cons: The building is dirty, infested with roaches, worst management company ever, heat would go out in winter, people smoking in stairwells and elevator, elevator breaks constantly Advice to landlord: Seriously stop renovating apartments and just demolish the building and start again. Worst living experience ever.”
