If you need a place to stay for a short lease in Manhattan and you have 3 roommates to live with, this is not a bad option. It's furnished, has most everything you need to live there.
If you are someone who needs sunlight and wants a view, this is not the place. The windows face barbed wire, trash covered alleys and cement walls.
Heating and cooling is going to be handled by fans, window ac units and space heaters.
There are 2 bathrooms. One with 2 sinks, the other with one. Both were fine (the sinks are strong though, watch not to turn them too high).
There is in unit laundry, just be aware that the dryer is very very weak and will take several hours for a load.
The apartment is a basement apartment, so you enter through a side gate and enter through a storage area to get to the door. You are right next to the supers office. In order to get mail or dispose of trash, you will need to go up to the main entrance lobby.
Bedroom layouts are as follows:
Bedroom 1: No window, no closet, no dresser
Bedroom 2: No window, closet, no dresser, door is glass with curtains to provide privacy
Bedroom 3: Window with AC unit, closet, dresser
Bedroom 4: Window with AC unit, closet, dresser
All in all, it was fine for the 4 months we stayed here.
