Love this apartment, but has some bad quirks
Pros
I loved the size of my apartment and location is amazing. It's rent stabilized and that's a pro in itself. The building was relatively safe and well-kept by the super/management. There was monthly pest control that came and was free, but if you are not home, they will not service you for it. If I had a maintenance request, it was usually addressed fairly quickly. I have only had one package stolen. It's right off a main street so it's usually always ok to walk around day/night. The garbage area in the back is always kept clean and they clean the hallways.
Cons
There are bugs, especially in the summer, even with the pest control. I only saw one mouse and they put down traps, patched up the hole it came from and I never saw one again. I'm pretty sure my apartment had mold in it, as I developed a chronic cough. There is a mentally unwell man who can yells at any hour of the day, for hours at a time, in his backyard (which is a building on 25th street). This doesn't affect front-facing units as much as back ones, but I've heard from back-unit tenants that it's a major headache. There's also a neighbor who's dog barks all day if he's not home and he also has a lot of visitors, which makes safety a slight concern since you don't know who's coming in and out. Not necessarily a building problem, but the C/E subway doesn't always run on the weekends because of maintenance. While there's a lot of expensive apartments in this neighborhood, there's also some unsafe aspects to the neighborhood that comes with being in this area...
Advice to the owners
Super is amazing, property management could be more responsive.
