a very bad management. I live there and have no heat and management irresponsive. I do not recommend. choose another place

I lived here for two years while in acting school. There are definitely worse places to live; however, the last year of me living there was much worse than the first. Here’s why:
1. The first year, there was a man named George who pretty much worked all the time doing maintenance and whatnot for the building. He sorted trash/​recycling, fixed apt. issues, mopped common areas, etc. Then he left for some reason (probably because he was getting paid nothing and living in a windowless basement apt.) and this new guy started and he doesn’t do anything. And I fear he put recycling with regular garbage. Frustrating.
2. I moved in with two people into a 2 bedroom and we made the living room into a bedroom. When my other roommates moved out at different times, the woman who shows the apartments (Karen) showed the rooms to strangers. This is fine– its actually how the building works: tenants rent by the room and Karen tries to put them with roommates she thinks will get along. However, she didn’t even ask my preferences (ie smokers, males vs. females, age, etc) AND consistently showed the apartment and then didn’t double lock the door, making it easier to break in without signs of forced entry.
3. I just deposited my returned security deposit (I moved out on July 31) and the check BOUNCED! How does a company that owns at least one whole apartment building in New York not have the funds to support a $ 575 check? Of course, I had to eat the overdraft fees and the returned check fee. And the woman who works in the office still hasn’t returned my phone call about it.
