Reviews

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Nice place nice location

Pros

Love the layout - dishwasher is good you’re right on bedford so only 15 minutes to Williamsburg and only 20 minutes to Fulton station

Cons

Management isn’t as responsive as they could be but they’re not bad. Will raise price of apartment by a crazy amount even though I’ve lived here for two years.

Advice to the owners

Don’t raise rent

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Cheap student apartment with non responsive management

Pros

Close to the A/C trains, Fully renovated

Cons

Management takes forever to fix any issues (if they ever do). They don't reply to emails or calls and haven't returned the security deposit after a month. Security cameras never work. The basement entrance is always dirty and gets infested with flies
