    Disgusting - Think Twice
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nothing - literally nothing.
    Cons:
    Rats. Mice. Roaches galore. This place was an absolute health hazard and the live in super was a homeless man who slept in the boiler room. Lived here in 2017 so take this with a grain of salt, but truly an awful disgusting place to live. Zero stars.
    Advice to owner:
    The basement is not a habitable environment. Stop renting it out.

    Terrible Management Company
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The price was very fair, cheap for a 3bdr in a pretty good area. Across from a school, never felt unsafe. Water pressure was high and clean.
    Cons:
    Livingston Management Services was terrible. They don’t respond to emails, they don’t fix broken pipes. The boiler has been broken in the building for over 8 months and there’s no heat. Additionally, there is a mice problem (even up to the 5th floor) and they will not send exterminators. Finally, the laundry room constantly has water up to your ankles and half the machines are broken.
    Advice to owner:
