    The apartment is functional
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This building is within walking distance to both the Q and 6 trains (about a 10 minute walk).
    Cons:
    Noise: This building is situated right next to a construction site that has long hours of operation. Within the apartment there are thin walls that afford little privacy.

    Maintenance: the superintendent is ornery and does not speak English well. Scheduling with him is very difficult and he is not very personable.

    Pests: the pest control person will come and spray for roaches and pests the first Tuesday of every month. This portion of 78th street has a rat problem, and the backyard has rat nests according to the exterminator.

    It's an old building that needs some TLC.

    Space is nice but not clean
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The space is larger than most and that is nice.
    Cons:
    Lots of rats outside, the construction is so loud, the landlord does not communicate well or is kind about negotiating.
    Advice to owner:
    Invest in renovations; they sold the lot next door for a pretty penny.

    OK for short term rental
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Convenient location and decent size rooms
    Cons:
    Common spaces smelled weird and were not well maintained with mysterious stains on the floor. Major pest problems with a ton of cockroaches.
    Advice to owner:
    Nothing I can think of

    On a Quiet Block
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Our unit was big with two bathrooms and new renovations.
    Cons:
    Next to an abandoned lot so there were a lot of rats around (not in the building just near by) and a lot of sketchy people hanging out on the stoop.
