    good but pest issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    super is very friendly and attentive, good neighborhood
    Cons:
    half of my ceiling started leaking and there was always a pest issue
    Over 1 year ago
    Decent, but bad pest problem
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious. Came with tv, ac, in unit laundry, and almost all utilities included in rent.
    The super has been very responsive when we've needed him. Nice area and generally would love this apartment if not for the cons.
    Cons:
    The pests. The landlord will not do maintenance to actually stop anything like sealing holes so you just gotta deal with it on your own :/ We've had mice, roaches, and even ants. None ever really went away they come in waves.
    Heat is pretty unbearable in the main room from lack of windows but the bedrooms have the ac units so at least it isnt too hot to sleep.
    Advice to owner:
    for the amount you charge for rent, better maintenance is needed besides sending an exterminator to spray around once a month.

    Not the Best
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Close to the subway, Jose the super is amazing, the management company was quick to reply, pretty nice neighborhood
    Cons:
    I was in a constant battle with roaches, we heard mice in the ceilings and saw one in our apartment once, we had loud neighbors who regularly had police check ins (not sure why), bathroom hardware was cheap and broke easily, the elevator would occasionally get stuck

    Cute Building in WH
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Lovely super, easy management team to work with, and apartment was perfect location for public transportation
    Cons:
    No washer/dryer in building, so if you don’t have one in your apartment than gotta go to laundromat
    Advice to owner:
    Please give more incentive to local students

    Bad experience
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Close to the A and 1 train
    Cons:
    Bad neighbors, bad super, bad quality of work done by maintenance, neglected building, not secured
    Advice to owner:
    Renovate the building, keep the tenants accountable for the noise they make and the disruption to other tenants, keep the super accountable for his responsibilities.
