    Horrible Management but Good Bones
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Hardwood floors, great location, decent value, rent controlled, friendly neighbors
    Cons:
    Horrible horrible horrible management, no elevator, no responsiveness or responsibility taken by the ownership whatsoever. Dirty halls, consistent package theft, outdated intercom system. Washer dryer room disgusting and hasn’t works for months.
    Advice to owner:
    Have some sort of communication system with your tenants!
