    Solid spot in Gowanus / Park Slope
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice little building on the same street as Threes and Insa. My floor had its own bathroom for each bedroom. Landlord is fairly responsive. Affordable for the area. Generally quiet at night.
    Cons:
    Bugs, weird smells sometimes (like when it rains), mail situation is a mess, occasionally some tenants noisy late into the night.

    Not great management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location, inexpensive
    Cons:
    Sporadic heating, hallways not cleaned, garbage is a mess
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the building

    Lots of problems
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location, can’t be beat. Apartments are a good size
    Cons:
    4th floor doesn’t have heat. Front door isn’t a door and isn’t safe, garbage is a mess - tons of rats at night - sidewalk is always dirty, and, yeah, the 4th floor doesn’t have heat and the landlord hasn’t fixed it for over a year - super illegal
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the heat on the 4th floor. hire a professional don’t try to do it yourself like you tried (and failed) with the mice.
