Apartment is ok, building is not
Former Tenant
Pros:
Apartment itself is nice, modern kitchen, clean. Didn’t have any major issues/problems with appliances, plumbing, etc. Exterminator comes periodically.
Cons:
Building is not well cleaned/maintained. Stairwell is frequently dirty and smelly, on part because neighbor(s) smoke in the stairwell. There is no safe place to leave packages so they are either not delivered or stolen.

Great super, horrible neighbors
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super responded to every inquiry within 24 hours. Did everything he could to help us. Our unit was also nicely renovated.
Cons:
But our neighbors were all horrible. Yelling at all hours, suspicious smells, etc. we constantly found cigarettes, sections of weaves, bags of white powder, and all kinds of trash in the stairwell. When the landlord repainted the stairwell, the walls were disgusting again within a week due to negligence.
Advice to owner:
Evict horrible tenants. Also, repaint front of the building and install some type of garden in the green patch. Lastly, please manicure the fence so that the weeds from the subway don’t spill into the complex.
