Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

A decent place to be 95% of the time

Pros

The building is clean and pet-friendly. The location is great -- the neighborhood is vibrant and Prospect Park is within 2 minutes of walk.

Cons

For non-trivial issues (e.g., not fixable by replacing simple parts), the management is often very slow. Past examples involving leakage, trespassing, or failing appliances require active and persistent follow-up.
