Summarized from anonymous rental reviews on Openigloo.
Courtyard is nice with lots of birds and squirrels; quiet separation from street (We are in a central building)
Heat goes way too high and no control over it; no central air; bathroom has lots of issues; several spots appear to have mold growing under the paint? Laundry machines are mildly functional and often take your $ without running. Not enough outlets in unit
Keep a better eye on the heating system and maintenance of laundry machines; make sure mold/water damage is eliminated fully
1. Neighbors are reasonable with sound. Met quite a few nice neighbors here. 2. Without the location, there would be nothing good to say about it. Ditmars is great.
Incompetence at every level, unfortunately. 1. Security is non-existent. Laundry rooms gets full of outsiders(you can easily tell) and you are sometimes unable to use it. A neighbor also told me there was a squatter that sneaks onto the roof and goes into empty apartments through the fire escape, they also stole a package..can't confirm but I do hear strange clanging sounds that wake me up sometimes. 2. Non-responsive superintendent. Me and several other neighbors had a roof leak a few months ago when the historic rains hit us. The roof is moldy and part of the roof is drooping. We haven't received any updates or response about it getting fixed. 3. Apartment was not received clean, I spent a week and over a dozen paper towel rolls getting dust off. The "renovations" done to the apartment are complete slop-jobs: painted over mold and very old worn out wood. The wood floor has no finish so it gets dirty very easily, the owner clearly does not care about the apartment.
