Don’t live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cheap rent for big apt, friendly on-site super who cleans/mops often in an attempt to keep up with residents littering the lobby
Cons:
Management doesn’t respond to calls or emails in general. LARGE roaches (even though I kept an IMMACULATELY clean unit because roaches terrify me), saw a dead mouse in the stairwell, heat/hot water problems often throughout the year(s), had a package stolen once, VERY loud music blasting sometimes, some residents litter the stairwells/lobby with garbage, some residents leave garbage bags/trash in the hallways, the front door lock to the building was broken sometimes leading to safety concerns
Advice to owner:
Respond to calls and emails from residents. Enforce rules throughout the building for residents safety and health
