Water hammer and water pooling on the floor
Pros
The unit was spacious with many closets. The apartment is conveniently located near the A train and a supermarket.
Cons
Water hammer during winter months made it impossible to sleep. It sounded like a hammer banging on a metal pipe and occurred every 45 minutes, lasting about two minutes each time. In addition, the sink drained into the dishwasher, meaning that water pooled on the floor every day, as the filter was smaller in the dishwasher and clogged repeatedly. The super is not responsive, and management repeatedly promised to fix the issues but never did.
Owned by known slum lord
Pros
Cheap, near the A train.
Cons
Had roaches when I moved in. Had to file complaints with the city to get anything fixed.
