    Good experience at 280 Ft Wash
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Stayed pretty clean, super is responsive and friendly, trash and laundry easy
    Cons:
    No big complaints
    Over 2 years ago
    Living’s Ok Here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Livable spaces, elevator, thick walls
    Cons:
    Things get stolen from the lobby often, and the management company takes 4-8 weeks or longer to make repairs
    Advice to owner:
    Be more prompt in handling the issues within your tenant’s apartments, or begin to offer rent concessions as compensation for living with broken appliances, sinks, etc - even in your renovated apartments
