LOUD, DIRTY, AND PESTS. PLEASE do not rent here. STAY AWAY.
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Location is great, close to the park and many great restaurants on 8th avenue and 6th avenue
- Super is nice and helpful, but he is overworked and super busy
Cons:
Building is filled with pests. My apartment had TWO mice encounters and I was constantly finding cockroaches around the apartment and in the hallways. Overall ITS SO LOUD. Walls are super thin and the neighbors below often played loud music/karaoke sometimes until 3am. Can always hear my neighbors full conversation regardless of what room I was in. The building is poorly maintained. Hallways are constantly dirty and the stairway often smells like urine. One neighbor leaves their trash under the stairway on the first floor for some reason. Neighbor often smoked inside which lead to the smoke smell coming into the apartment. Constant water damage in the bathroom ceiling that was not properly addressed. Building just doesn't feel secure. Sometimes the front door would just be left open and unlocked. Packages get opened in the hallway. Hard to talk to management. Their accounting is unorganized. Any requests I made to fix something in the apartment took months to get addressed or just got ignored. Random people loiter in the alleyway in the night/early morning and in the middle area of the building, leading to their voices echoing into the unit. Lack of natural light and very dark throughout the day. Radiator is old so its loud when it turns on. Kitchen sink sometimes does not have cold water. Overall, just bad.

Avoid this building
Former Tenant
Pros:
Close to Sunset Park
Cons:
Landlord is awful and disrespectful to tenants. Withheld my security deposit for almost 2 months after moving out for no reason. Major bug problems. My kitchen had roaches and several neighbors had roaches and bedbugs when I moved out. Terrible security. Homeless people sleeping on roof. Mentally ill neighbor on 2nd floor who was constantly yelling and threatening to kill people. Landlord and police did nothing. Packages constantly stolen. Building front door lock breaks often. Tenant parks their motorbike inside the building’s lobby. Avoid this property.
Advice to owner:
Sell it to someone who can care for the building properly.
