208 E 124th St Apartments

lot of hustle and bustle on Lex, once you get to 3rd Ave it feels a lot safer and there's even a police station down the block. I'm super satisfied with the location. As far as the apartments, they are in major need of an update. My roommate and I get the place cleaned professionally once a week and still can't get the stains out of the tub or get the floors to shine. The place is just old so there's no way to make it look sparkly again unless they renovate. Also, we inherited roaches with the place. They are generally small but at one point it became a huge problem. We have put out the traps and that has helped a lot but it's something to be aware of. I've never seen a mouse though so very grateful for that. Neighbors are great and friendly but typically mind their business. We do have the stereotypical older nosy lady but I don't see her much so it's fine. Oh and one annoying thing is there's no buzzer in the building so anytime you get a delivery you need to leave a note with your number on the door. I've missed a lot of packages because of it. Overall great location but super small and outdated apartment, so I gave it 3 stars. Would give it 3 and a half but can't really do that. Hope This helps!
