    Avoid at all costs
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Absolutely none- place sucked
    Cons:
    Stupidly rented here as a young/inexperienced student. Moved in with a roommate who was resigning so assumed the place wouldn’t be that bad, my mistake. Was on the first floor so pests galore (though probably par for the course in this neighborhood) and to make it worse garbage would be piled inside the building inches from my apt door. Never saw a super (google voice number went straight to voicemail) and landlord flora was nasty and delusional. I paid the years rent up front with primarily student loans (19, no co-signer) and when I repeatedly complained about pests, garbage, no heat/hot water, and safety issues she blocked my phone number. Called 311 daily if not multiple times a day because issues would only be corrected after fines were issued. Building also didn’t have an intercom system and since— according to a neighbor— many of the Chinese families had multiple generations and more people than allowed on the lease living in each apartment, door was always propped open bc family members didn’t want to go up and down stairs to let each other in.

    Owner not responsive
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice location - trash well maintained
    Cons:
    management not very responsive
    Over 2 years ago
    Poor management overall
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s close to one of my jobs
    Cons:
    The property management is in shambles, it really is terrible here. It’s impossible to reach help when you need anything, and anytime I am finally in contact with someone, they leave me on read for hours or days. Even about important things like the water isn’t working.
    There is no remote access to the front door or buzzer at all. This is difficult since the building is only stairs and 6 flights. Packages rarely get delivered (or even attempted) due to this.
    Advice to owner:
    Care for your building. Communicate with your residents.
