Decent Building in Astoria
Pros
The super is great. Lives there with his family and is very responsive.
Cons
The management company is slow to respond and not flexible. I also received three MCI increases in my first two years living here. They were not too expensive, but I was not expecting them. Needed a deep cleaning when I moved in. Not much was done between tenants.
Advice to the owners
Improve communication and customer service after the lease is signed.
3/5 stars for me
Pros
cleaner than most nyc apartments they have people clean twice a week in the lobby / outdoor area neighbors are very chill and from the ones i have talked to are very nice good elevator and is pet friendly, ive seen tons of dogs of all sizes pretty quite building & area in the neighborhood laundry in building & a laundromat across the street right near train
Cons
had a mice problem i called many times about it, all they will do is give you sticky traps & come seal any holes yet that only does so much. i ended up getting the old school mouse traps and in my year here, caught EIGHT - EIGHT MICE and i’m sure there are many more so disgusting. i move out in a month so hopefully i don’t have to kill anymore. in my last 2 months here, tiny roaches started to appear in the kitchen, often coming out of the dishwasher. its quite gross they are showing up way too often and i keep every thing pretty clean and given where they are coming in from i think it’s a building issue or coming from other apartments maybe
