    Lots of issues
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Apartment was recently renovated, lots of natural light, close to transportation
    Cons:
    Unit was very small. The heating pipe in my room was so loud I had to sleep with earplugs, and I complained to management for months but they never did anything about it. Never did anything about the awful bug problem either - there wasn’t regular pest control & there really should have been. Also the garbage situation was very inconvenient as we had to throw it out in the building next door. Area was also generally super loud
    Advice to owner:
    Keep up with pest control

    Neat Location, Responsive Management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location right off the 1 as A trains and above a grocery store. Apt 3 was a really cute spot with lots of natural light, somewhat new appliances, a washer, and beautiful wooden floor. Rather small and cozy. Management was pretty responsive and personally was thinking of renewing the lease but also wanted to find somewhere a little bigger. No doorman but mail was generally safe (can’t recall having mail stolen). Super easy to get the security deposit back which feels miraculous in a city like NY. Ended up moving but would recommend this property and the management for sure!
    Cons:
    The trash system is odd and in the building next door to the supermarket, so a little challenging to throw out trash. There is massive construction in the back of the lot, which isn’t the landlords’ fault whatsoever but was annoying some days. Mentioned earlier but apt was rather small but great enough if it’s just one or two of you. No storage, medicine cabinet, or counter space in the bathroom (just a small cabinet under the sink). The hallway was under construction the whole duration of the lease. Not quite sure what was up with that.
    Advice to owner:
    Great job, keep up
