Can't complain about much - esp as a first apt
Former Tenant
Pros:
Heat was never an issue, our apt in particular never had an issue with pests but a friend's apt did so it is very location dependent. Quiet, never had problems with neighbors. Easy to dispose of trash. All utilities except wifi are included.
Cons:
Carpets in hallway seem old and dirty, our apt in particular was also not renovated recently so not the best but not that bad. Just annoying to take down recycling to ground level so we always had a little pile in the apartment.

Stuytown is great
Former Tenant
Pros:
Clean, well managed, big apartments
Cons:

Great place to live
Former Tenant
Pros:
Stuytown keeps everything pretty clean. They are always out doing little projects on the oval. The building itself is clean
Cons:
The buildings themselves could use some updating. The individual units are slowly being renovated, but the common areas could definitely use some work. The laundry rooms in particular.
Advice to owner:
Don’t treat your tenants like number quotas to be met. People are very loyal to Stuytown and when they have a complaint or issue, it’s usually very valid.

Clean & Friendly
Former Tenant
Pros:
Hallways and common areas are well maintained, neighbors are friendly.
Cons:
A lot of young (NYU students and recent grads) who have loud parties.
Advice to owner:
Focus on long term tenants over students, less tolerance for frequent loud parties
