Rental at 30-49 Crescent Street - dont do it

I lived here for a year after the renovations. This unit is a tiny ~350 ft^2 apartment (measured it multiple times). The appliances look nice but require maintenance relatively often (each appliance broke at least once during my lease). Oven barely works, cant hold a set temperature, takes >1 min to turn ON, let alone get to temperature (had several repair guys come and tell me "that's just how this model is". Appliances are very small. Only one very small closet. Hot water pipes exposed (need to insulate them in winter or one could burn themselves). Water temperature very inconsistent. Management company is VERY hard to reach, bad hours and never pick up the phone, intentionally combative. Washer/Dryers in building often broken. Also had several packages stolen from lobby which is very regularly unlocked. Maintenance guy was nice and tries to help, though. Not necessarily a bad unit by NYC standards (for one person that does not have much stuff), however it is worth no where near the price. [less]
