    Decent place bad landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    My unit was renovated and management was somewhat responsive
    Cons:
    First year I lived here landlords illegally tried to raise rent (it’s rent stabilized)

    Also had a flooding issue and they wouldn’t reimburse for ruined property

    Loved my time here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Always clean, seemed new, things looked good when we moved in, friendly neighbors in their early-mid 20s, heat and air (almost) always work but maintenance fixes quickly. Oven didn’t work when we moved in but we put in a request and a couple dudes came and installed a whole ass new oven the next day. Guy who fixes the AC is a character but boy can he fix an AC. Really have no complaints really.
    Cons:
    Walls are super thin. If your roommates talk at a normal-quiet volume you might want ear plugs, even if your door is shut. Our apt was in the back so sometimes downstairs people would have loud parties in the backyard, but that’s not nearly as loud as your roommates talking in the room next to you. Stupid thin walls
    Advice to owner:
    THICKEN THE WALLS! INJECT WITH FOAM
