Hell on Earth
Pros
Close to public transit
Cons
Mold in my apartment from day 1 that they did nothing about. Still there. Building next door is condemned so there are literal rats and raccoons in the walls. You hear them scratching and running around a lot. Took them two months to do something about the water bubble on the ceiling of my room. The old maintenance guy literally would not respond to me because I’m a woman, but if my male roommates contacted about the same issue he would respond. Good luck getting anything fixed though. Came home one day and the building’s mailbox was completely removed from the wall?? My shower drain stopped working, so I contacted management. They responded a week later. I had solved the problem by then because I had no other choice. Will contact you to get access to your apartment. But they will literally already be outside and walking in, so the call doesn’t even matter.
Advice to the owners
Get a new job. I’m begging you.
Apartment building/Managememt company from hell
Pros
Affordable for NYC
Cons
Roach infestation Rat infestation Noisy beyond belief, and I am a girl who likes to party. Dangerous area, and the streets are not well lit. The rats have made a Home outside of the apartment building, so expect to trip over a few rats anytime you leave the building as they have nested in the garbage that is usually pressed up against the door. Poor air quality I was hospitalized because of my asthma, numerous times due to the dust flying out of the air conditioning units. Upon arrival, the floors were still black, and the air conditioning units were also black as well when mentioning to the landlord, they said that we were responsible for cleaning up the last tenants mess. There was a dead mouse behind my fridge. The first day I moved in. Mold in the air conditioner. Had to call 311 to help out with the issue because the management company had several violations that weren’t documented. Not to mention, they stole my security deposit.
