    Mediocre At Best
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The landlord hardly interferes and will hardly come by to check in. It’s close to a lot of restaurants, gyms and stores. Prospect Park is only 10 minutes away. You can have pets!
    Cons:
    The building is often dirty. Half of the apartments don’t have proper heating. No laundry in the units or building. Heat is impossible to control, I often had to leave my AC on to cool down my room. Most of the building smells like weed 1/2 the time. The live-in superintendent is terrible at his job and isn’t always kind.

    Don’t move here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Transportation, stores, gyms
    Cons:
    Neighbors are loud. They jump, stomp, scream and bounce balls . People who don’t live in the building come in the hallway and smoke weed, the smell gets into your apartment. There’s rats in the walls . Walls are thin and hallways are always dirty.

    Acceptable in the past
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great water pressure in the showers; fairly convenient to transportation.
    Cons:
    Heat cranked up to sickening levels in winter; common area seems to be cleaned rarely; building experienced a fire and was then vacated on 12/18/21--as of 1/7/22 it is still not repaired and reopened.
    Advice to owner:
    Please take better care of your tenants
