1. Neighbors are reasonable with sound. Met quite a few nice neighbors here. 2. Without the location, there would be nothing good to say about it. Ditmars is great.
Cons:
Incompetence at every level, unfortunately. 1. Security is non-existent. Laundry rooms gets full of outsiders(you can easily tell) and you are sometimes unable to use it. A neighbor also told me there was a squatter that sneaks onto the roof and goes into empty apartments through the fire escape, they also stole a package..can't confirm but I do hear strange clanging sounds that wake me up sometimes. 2. Non-responsive superintendent. Me and several other neighbors had a roof leak a few months ago when the historic rains hit us. The roof is moldy and part of the roof is drooping. We haven't received any updates or response about it getting fixed. 3. Apartment was not received clean, I spent a week and over a dozen paper towel rolls getting dust off. The "renovations" done to the apartment are complete slop-jobs: painted over mold and very old worn out wood. The wood floor has no finish so it gets dirty very easily, the owner clearly does not care about the apartment.

Pros:
Apartment was nicely renovated on the surface level, Allowed pets Not noisy Decent laundry room, and they kept the stairs clean.
Cons:
Specifically about management company: Management company was nowhere to be found after moving in. Poorly renovated, looked good in pictures but things fell apart easily. Absurd rent increases. Theres no heater in the main living space. Terrible experience with management company overall, ignored calls and wouldn’t respond to emails or messages. Had to harass them for the safety deposit back.
Building specific: Rats everywhere. Terrible garbage maintenance
Advice to owner:
Listen to your tenants. Fix the issues, do better.
