    Great Apartment Minus Management
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The apartment complex itself is good overall. Very clean, garbage rooms on each floor, parking, bike room, and the location is prime with 5th avenue and park slope just a few blocks away.
    Cons:
    The AC and Heating systems are old school and outdated with large units in each room. Two of them broke down while living here for two years and it took months for management to fix or replace in peak summer months. Management is also lack luster, they refuse to admit to mistakes and you’ll have to follow up for 3 months in order to get what you need done. There is a live in super which is good for when you are locked out but he only repairs the bare minimum. We had a leak which we told management about and it took them 2 months to resolve the issues. Our floors started to buckle and the wood rotted underneath. They tried to cover up the rot over new floors without removing the mold first. We had to call 311 and 311 pushed the floor update. 311 also found other violations in the building while we were there.
    Advice to owner:
    Instead of trying to do quick and cheap fixes, invest in your apartments and your tenants suggestion to make better solutions in the long run. Give solutions rather than being cheap - especially for the rent you’re charging.
