Reviews

Amazing location and deal!

Pros

Amazing location and deal. Great neighbors. People have lived there for a long time. Common areas really clean. Super relatively responsive. Rent stabilized units.

Cons

Management could be more responsive. No shared laundry facilities.

Former tenant·7 minutes ago

MANAGEMENT REFUSED TO CLEAN A DECEASED TENANT'S UNIT FOR ALMOST A FULL YEAR.

Pros

Pedro the super and his family do a great job keeping the place clean. The issue is not with them.

Cons

A woman died in unit 4U and management didn't want to pay to have the apartment deep cleaned for ALMOST ONE FULL CALENDAR YEAR. She died and wasn't found for 4 weeks, so she had reached advanced stages of decomposition. The 4th floor smelled like dead body this entire time. Flies were leaking into nearby units through the vent systems. Our unit also had mold around the windows and would leak during a heavy rain. Landlord REFUSED to fix it because it would require scaffolding, and they straight up said they didn't want to pay for it. Stay FAR AWAY from anything owned by Jonas Equities. Disgusting.
