    good apartment overall
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Elevator, central a/c, close to the L&G
    Cons:
    could use more closet space
    Over 2 years ago
    Filthy, unresponsive, cheaply maintained
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is the only good thing
    Cons:
    Building is filthy. Every repair is done as cheaply as possible if it is done at all. Mold and rodent issues with no end in sight.
    Advice to owner:
    Invest more into the property.

    Cute building but dishonest landlords
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Small building, clean common areas, subway just right in front, did not see any pests when I was there
    Cons:
    Landlords raise the rent astronomically when your lease is up and also charged me 50 extra every month saying that I had to pay for water (water is free in NY) and I did not know as I was an out of towner and they exploited that.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop scamming people
    Over 3 years ago
    Great experience here!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Very close to the subway, in a great spot of Williamsburg, great super
    Cons:
    No sunlight on any of the floors
    Advice to owner:
    Lower rent
    Over 3 years ago
    Rude Management Company
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location was good
    Cons:
    Management was extremely rude, and they charged a $50 water bill even though water is free in nyc (just as the previous reviewer mentioned). They also hiked up the rent after a year. Would not recommend.
