Reviews

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

42 clinton street

Pros

Halls are cleaned monthly, everyone in the building keeps everything fairly clean though Good heat. Super responds back within 24 hours Can barely hear neighbors

Cons

Big Cockroaches. Even up on the fifth floor I’ve had issues with them being in the apt in any room. Water pressure could be better but gets the job done

Advice to the owners

More roach traps and better water pressure

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Charming but wow...

Pros

Close to L Train, close to schools, great food options

Cons

Super was unresponsive or would sometimes completely ignore you. Would only respond to you if you got management directly involved. Neighbors got loud on weekends, and had a bad roach problem during the summer. Sound carried a lot throughout the halls and could hear people sneezing or yelling from the inside of your apartment.

Advice to the owners

The super needs to be more responsive. It's really difficult to get a hold of him in emergencies, sometimes wouldn't even be in the city.
