Great apartment with minor inconveniences
Pros
Well maintained stairway. Modern aesthetic. Very little rent increase. Great neighborhood, responsive management
Cons
Gym is not well maintained (has a lot of flies). Packages can pileup very fast. Water heating is slow, water pressure is okay, appliances are not too efficient. Sink buildup because it's flat / a lot of form over function. My unit has little sunlight. Far from train and Atlantic Ave has too many car collisions
Advice to the owners
Fix minor issues and the only con would be that this is a walk-up
Convenient but appearance not a priority for owners
Pros
Latch app for building and apartment access is very convenient. Maintenance is friendly and responsive.
Cons
The common areas (hallways, back patio) aren’t kept up well. The back patio was advertised as a common gathering area, but in reality is a dirty, unpleasant area where trash and recycling bins are that butts up against a construction site.
Advice to the owners
Clean up the common areas and don’t paint dark hallways dark colors.
