you get what you pay for
Pros
right next to B24 bus stop + McGolrick park cheaper rent than other buildings in the area large closets
Cons
Noisy neighbors that smoke all the time Building hallways/stairs not clean Can feel unsafe at night next to highway Mice are a constant issue
Advice to the owners
Enforce no smoking rules and have someone come and clean the hallways monthly at a bare minimum. Install more lighting outside for safety.
Do not live here - heat/hot water doesn’t work
Pros
Sorry, not applicable.
Cons
Heat/hot water went out dozens of times in the 6 months I lived there, and I ended up breaking the lease after threatening legal action. Took my security deposit back only by refusing last month’s rent. Not to mention it’s a tiny and dirty apartment under BQE/in bad location for Manhattan prices. There was caked on grease all over the kitchen I had to clean, and damage to walls and doors. ***Managed by Amsterdam Property Group so avoid them at all costs.***
Advice to the owners
Lower rent and actually address critical issues/set up a less flaccid on-call system for after-hours. It was 100% lip service.
