15 minute walk to Prospect Park.
Close to multiple bus routes.

Cons:
Hard water - shower water feels gritty and difficult to wash out of certain hair types. (I have thin/fine hair, and it usually made my hair feel dirty/flat even after showering. My roommate with thicker hair didn't notice though.)
Management isn't the best at communicating via email/phone. Sometimes it's difficult to get full answers from them.
The building is all electric, and utilities get very high in the winter/summer.
Unit doesn't have the best insulation and it was difficult to the temperature.
Heat and hot water not included in rent.

Advice to owner:
Be more transparent about the leasing process and respond with full answers to emails. Notify tenants before maintenance shows up unexpectedly.
