Small but beloved Williamsburg apt
Former Tenant
Pros:
The neighbors are really nice, the location is great. I never heard any sound from the apartments around us- thick walls and floors. Appliances all work pretty well. Good water pressure. We had roaches for a while but the exterminator came and pretty much handled the situation. The super is quite nice and helpful.
Cons:
There are often block parties across the street. I liked the vibrancy of the community, but it was hard to sleep sometimes. The hallways are fairly dirty. The trash courtyard can sometimes be pretty gross. Biggest con is how high they raised the rent. One of the bedrooms was very small and had no closet.

Bed bugs - do not live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
None to speak of
Cons:
Had bed bugs and super denied it even though this isn’t the first case and he knows what they look like. After two weeks they finally got an exterminator. Found more bed bugs. Disgusting place and horrible management.
Advice to owner:
Shut down.

do NOT live here
Former Tenant
Pros:
better than being homeless, maybe
Cons:
good luck ever trying to get in contact with management, they take weeks to respond (if you’re lucky enough to get a response) and are extremely unhelpful.
there are thieves who live in the building and management does nothing about it. my roommates and i have gotten dozens of packages stolen and know others in the building also do. even GROCERIES get stolen.
took us two months to get a new set of keys. on two separate occasions we scheduled time to go into the office to pick them up and they didn’t have them.
please please please save yourself and choose anywhere else to live.
Advice to owner:
do better.

There's no Super here.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Renovated units are nice when new, street noise from rear units is minimal, and water pressure is decent.
Cons:
The portion of renters that have generational rent protections make the situation precarious for full rent paying tenants and management. Tenants drag leaking garbage down the stairs. Packages are stolen constantly. The outer building door lock is regularly broken. The garbage area is poorly maintained and tenants don't take garbage all the way to the receptacles. Pests of all sorts are a problem year round. Management is non-existent. Many tenants can be very noisy in their units and common spaces at all hours. Refinished units that have been occupied for several years do not get the upkeep they need.
Advice to owner:
Any effort will be an improvement.

Great location, unresponsive management
Former Tenant
Pros:
This apartment is perfectly located close to JMZ, L, and G subways. The building is overall well maintained. Some of the apartments have been gut renovated and have dishwasher, W/D. Lots of natural light.
Cons:
We had consistent issues with significant leaking in our bathroom from the tenants above us. Only got resolved after months of following up and eventually threatening legal action. Property group is unresponsive most of the time. I was told from older tenants the issues in their apartments weren’t tended to and they were forced to fix things themselves.
Advice to owner:
Listen to your tenants and be more communicative.

You Can Do Better
Former Tenant
Pros:
The appliances in the apartment are updates and new and the rooms are decently sized regardless of how many bedrooms it is. Personally I’m a fan of no tub in the bathroom which is what is here. Additionally the washer/dryer in unit is clutch.
Cons:
Where to begin… this building has poor management, rarely responsive to any outreach, however they did recently get new people to be in charge. The hallways/stairwells have dead bugs and some neighbors never put their trash in the cans but leave on the steps which then rats chew into and leave trash everywhere. Some tenants also steal packages and when questioned management about it and the cameras they supposedly installed it was radio silent. Additionally management had horrible organization and would constantly misplace our rent or forget to adhere to our contact on any months free (we did not repay). Lastly, there is no elevator so living on the sixth floor can suck.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive when tenants come to you with issues and actively work to solve
