The grounds are the only benefit of living in Peter Cooper Village or Stuy Town.

We were often harassed by neighbors who didn't like the sound of footsteps over them. We don't wear shoes inside. We had area rugs that covered the majority of the area, which was verified by an in person inspection by the Tenant Relations woman. It took management 4 full months and threat of legal action and getting NYC police involved to talk to the neighbors and ask them to leave us be.

We paid our rent on the same day of every month automatically through our bank. They often charged us late fees even though our bank verified that the check was received well before the due date. It would take several emails, phone calls and written proof from the bank for management to reverse the charges.

When moving out we were charged $700 in cleaning fees even though the apartment was well cleaned. They claim a 3 year old sink needed replacing when it didn't. I didn't take pictures of the clean place, and I fully regret that. Now we have to work with the legal department to get the remainder of our security back.

I would not recommend this complex to anyone.

Umm your lease REQUIRES area rugs in the apt you selfish pig.

We had an inspection to verify that we did INDEED have the correct amount of rugs in the place. A letter was written and sent to the complaining neighbors. They also received a personal phone call to remind them that the inspection took place and to re-verify that there were rugs covering the floor. In addition to that every time security came in to report a complaint we pointed out the many rugs we had. They always told us the complaints were UNFOUNDED and the neighbors were just overly sensitive.
