Good value but far from the social life

Great value. Spacious modern apartment that was just build in the past decade. Modern feel and stainless steel appliances. Much more affordable than in Manhattan. Super lives on site and is able to come by to help with anything. Never seen a single pest. Includes indoor garage parking. Has a mail room where your packages are left so it wont be stolen off the sidewalk.

While it's in NJ, so it's far from all the social happenings of NYC, it's still easy to get into the city with frequent buses to/from Port Authority throughout the day.

Quiet building close to action

Quiet building but very close to good restaurants, bars and gay area.

Pet friendly so lots of dogs in the building.

Great management company, clean building and friendly staff. Nice rooftop with BBQ equipments and a big lounge area.

Public transportation connections are not close.

Dog friendly new building

Recently redecorated building, fee to use gym and laundry, dog friendly building. Great management company, clean corridors and young but quiet neighbors.

Location not the best one: no subways close by and 10th ave is hectic. Good grocery store close by (Food Emporium)

Great staff and upgrades

Building is renovated throughout, with new carpeting, lighting, and wallpaper in common areas, new flooring and apartment finishes. Laundry was upgraded to email when cycle is complete. Gym rarely gets too busy, and the common room is spacious and calm. The terrace isn't that large but suffices.

About Hell's Kitchen

Not just a home for learning and practicing actors, Hell's Kitchen is also loved by young professionals, performing artists, and students. A big perk of this neighborhood is the convenience - walking distance to subway and train stops, nearby grocery stores, and close to Fordham and NYU. There are m...

Reviewed by NYU Stern Student living at icon
Hell's Kitchen is full of restaurants. It's mostly very safe, but I typically avoid the edges (near Port Authority). It's close to Times Square, but it's very easy to avoid. Hell's Kitchen is pretty central so it's easy to get all over the city, and there are a lot of transit options (especially on 8th avenue).
Reviewed by NYU Stern Student living at The Clinton
Hell’s Kitchen has some rough edges, but the restaurant scene is terrific and decent deals on apartments. Being so close to 9th ave rocks, and 10th ave is definitely up-and-coming. there aren’t a lot of sternies nearby (most of them are in the village) but a handful live nearby. The reasons to like HK are the neighborhood vibe, the restaurant scene, and the proximity to Central Park. Downside is mostly distance from campus, depending on how close you live to the subway.
Reviewed by Clifford Chance LLP Employee living at West 54th
Hell's Kitchen has lots of grocery stores, bars, and restaurants, although it lacks some of the charm of other neighborhoods. It's possible to find new apartments here that are a good value. It's a relatively lively neighborhood. My only complaint is the lack of gyms and subway stations in the neighborhood.

PROS
* Easily accessible from a majority of transit hubs.
* Tremendous investment on the part of private and public entities, so there's a lot of development and renewarl.
* Proximity to Javits Center, Penn Station, and Time Square make it heavily policed and quite safe.

CONS
* NOISE--from the Lincoln Tunnel, the Javits, the River, the tourists, but above all else the construction
* Proximity to Javits Center, Penn Station, and Time Square can suck the character out of the location. Don't move here if you're looking to easily find a neighborhood with it's own personality (your local coffee place is going to be Starbucks and your local Italian place is going to be a hike if you want anything other than Sbarro/Olive Garden).
Reviewed by Andris living at 420 West 42nd Street
Midtown West has a vibrant bar and restaurant scene, and most of it is just far enough away from Times Square (past 8th Ave, anyway) to not attract tourists. Hell's Kitchen, in particular, has an amazing selection of places to eat with mostly smaller restaurants and bars. For those who want mega parties, Pacha and Hudson Terrace are by the river.

Transportation, particularly up and down the West Side and to FiDi is incredibly easy, and if you live near 42nd St, almost every area is a snap to get to.
Reviewed by Stern MBA Student living at 540 West
There are some good restaurants and bars, but overall it's not terribly exciting. Transit on A/C/E is pretty good, but getting to east side is difficult if you need to. Getting to west village is a breeze though.
Reviewed by Fordham Law Student living at Longacre House
We like the neighborhood, it is a little closer to midtown west than Hell's kitchen though. Lots of bars and good places to eat on ninth ave and only a fifteen minute walk to campus.
Reviewed by Stern MBA Student living at Longacre House
Pro: Great places to eat, close to multiple transit lines, and Broadway shows.

Con: Can be loud and tourist heavy during certain hours.
