22 hart street
Former Tenant
Pros:
Room layouts are ok. Enjoy having two bathrooms, and the jacuzzi tub/rain shower is nice. Cool lighting fixtures.
Cons:
Bad management, slow to investigate things that need to be fixed/even slower to actually fix them, rodents, building easy to break into
Advice to owner:
I know ownership has just changed, but please take residents seriously when we say something isn’t working and needs to be fixed! Last owner would just send a handyman who would just look at whatever needed fixing and shrug and suggest something we could do to fix it. Super unhelpful. We have only had two working burners on the stove for our duration of living here because of that. Also install some cameras and make the building more difficult to break into. Neighbor and I both had our bikes stolen.
