Good not great
Pros
The square footage for the price is great. The location is super convenient. And the super is great at tidying up the trash and recycling.
Cons
There are mice. The building is yet to use a compost bin. And we were without hot water or heating for 20 days while the landlord "waited" on the repairman. This was mid-winter, so you can imagine how much it sucked.
Advice to the owners
Just spend the money to fix the heat next time.
A mixed bag
Pros
Close to transportation (2/5 trains, bx19, bx21, bx36) and close to Crotona Park, shopping mall nearby
Cons
the surrounding area isn't the best, I wouldn't feel safe walking alone there at night, neighbors are loud and not respectful, rodents were an issue.
