    Good at First
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location (2 blocks from Ferry - local SI bus stop out front)
    Super really cared and tried his best to keep things up
    Cons:
    Bad neighborhood (Cops constantly at our building or across the street)
    Bad neighbors (Again - cops responded frequently to our bldg for domestics/drugs)
    Constant Roach/Mice problem that "pest control" did anything about if they even showed up at all
    Janitor/Porter made myself and other women in the building uncomfortable through constant unwanted advances. When advances were denied he got rude/aggressive
    Advice to owner:
    Take better care of your buildings and your tenants

    Big pest problem
    Former Tenant

    The building is a 5 minute walk to the Staten Island ferry. Supervisor is reachable and quick to respond.

    Mice and roaches are seen throughout the building. Issues with hot water, water pressure, lack of water can go on for weeks.
    Advice to owner:
    Keep the apartment complex in better condition and more sanitary.
