So many issues
Pros
1. Easy Commute- L train across the street 2. 24 hour deli next door that is clean and has a nice variety of items 3. Responsive landlord. Management usually responds within 30 minutes. 4. If you have a car, parking is pretty good. 5. No roaches or bedbugs!
Cons
1. A lot of rats. A lot. Hard to control. Rats in walls, floorboards, ceiling, between floor levels, chewing through concrete from front to back. Stampedes back and forth from street to back yard. Squeals in walls, chewing and gnawing all night. Afraid may come into the apartment. 2. Noisy neighbors. Very loud fighting and police activity, but not actual tenant. 3. Sewer issues with raw sewage over flowing into the basement living area. Flooding rain water inches at a time. A lot of damage that is not reimbursed. 4. No faucet in backyard, so not user-friendly". Unable to remove debris and garbage. Unkept and overgrown. 5. Garbage is out of control at times. Garbage is MWF with W for oversized and Recycling. Usually gets taken out once or twice per week, which adds to the rodent infestation. Garbage area is unkept and contributes to the pests- flies, rats, mice. 6. The building is not maintained well. It is often dirty and odorous.
DO NOT RENT HERE
Pros
All the tenants are respectful and quiet
Cons
Owner is unresponsive. I had no heat all winter long and I’ve always paid my rent and been a polite tenant. The main hallway areas and stairs are severely dirty. Human feces was left for 1 week in front of waste disposal bins. Superintendent cannot repair anything and gives you an attitude if he’s requested. They never do any annual maintenance services. Sometimes the front door is broken
