- Poor #25083
Run! Run away as fast as you can!
I was unfortunate enough to sign a lease to this place over the summer when I was in a desperate rush for housing before school started. Worst mistake I've ever made in my life, and that's saying something!
I held off on writing this review for months, in hopes that some poor unfortunate soul would be stupid enough to break my lease by subletting. But seeing as that's never going to happen, here it goes:
Let me start off by saying this isn't the WORST place to live from a social standpoint, but it is the WORST place to live for your money. The prices are ludicrous for what you get, which is a prison-sized room (which you have to share with another).
There's problems left and right in this dump. I'll make a list of it's faults:
1. The management (in general)
2. The terrible internet connection
3. Less TV channels than you can count on both hands
4. At least a half hour ride to Manhattan (if you're lucky)
5. Gestapo-like room searches once a month.
6. need I say more?
There are nice things about the place though:
1. The people that live here are cool.
2. Daniel, the maintenance guy.
3. That's about it.
The only way I get by with living here and keeping my sanity is this: I look forward to the day where I'm asked if I'd like to renew my lease (be it in person or via email) so I can go "HAHAHAHA! You gotta be f***ing kidding me! Ooooooooh boy, that's a good one! That's a friggin' knee-slapper!"
Mothers and Fathers! Don't be fooled by the false sense of security! There is no security! The person watching the front desk at night is usually asleep, and the "key-operated" sliding door can easily be pushed open by hand, and I mean EASILY!
