    Good Location, Mediocre Interior
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Proximity to 2/3/4/5 trains at Franklin Ave & Eastern Parkway.
    Proximity to Prospect Park, Brooklyn Museum, and Botanic Garden.
    Plenty of grocery and food options nearby. Same with laundromats.
    Cons:
    Heating was inconsistent, and the system needs upgrading.
    Sometimes hot water would run out quickly.
    4th bedroom is extremely tiny.
    No in building laundry.
    Advice to owner:
    Ensure the heating system is adequate and keeps all tenants warm.

    Bed bugs in the last year!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Spacious - huge bright front bedroom
    Great location
    Small building and neighbors are very quiet families that have been there for years
    Cons:
    Bed bugs bed bugs bed bugs
    Too floor unit (apt 8) had bed bugs twice in one year even after a very thorough first treatment.
    Advice to owner:
    Take care of the bed bugs FOR REAL not just small treatments that don’t get to the source of the problem
