For those with modest needs, it does the job.
Pros
3 blocks from Seneca Avenue & Forest Avenue (M) stations, 6 blocks from Myrtle Wycoff (L) station. Lots of cute bars and yummy local restaurants nearby. Lots of laundromats & bodegas within a couple blocks. Rent was $700 a month and utilities were about $100 a person; very inexpensive for the area.
Cons
The people in the floor below us had a bedbug problem once, but property management sent an exterminator quickly and it was never an issue again. Neighbors are kind of loud at times and walls were thin in leftmost bedroom, but they were ultimately reasonable people once we talked to them about it. If you can live with no central AC, dishwasher, living on the second floor, or in unit-laundry and don’t mind a short walk to the train, this is for you.
Advice to the owners
Sometimes could be a bit more responsive with maintenance issues I guess, but there weren’t that many in a year-long period.
