Worst experience of my life
Pros
Literally only the location.
Cons
Roaches, dead mice in the wall reeked of literal death and made the apartment uninhabitable, our apartment leaked a river LITERALLY every time it rained and the landlord did NOTHING about it, and our hot water heater broke in the middle of winter and we had to take cold showers while there was SNOW ON THE GROUND for months while the landlord “got around to fixing it,” which he never, in fact, did. There is some problem with the building vent and we would hear enormous bangs on on the ceiling from time to time, like someone was trying to break in or the entire building was about to collapse, which we weren’t convinced it wouldn’t, at any given time. Again, the landlord and super did nothing. Every single package I ever attempted to have delivered got stolen. They keep the trash on the first floor of the building right next to the ground apartment, which is not only illegal, but attracts all kinds of fun creatures. The stairs are quite literally falling down. Water leaks down the entire building every time it rains and drips through cracks in the concrete at the entryway. A new violation from the city was delivered to this address every week. I lived in constant fear at this apartment, just waiting for the next thing to go wrong, which inevitably, it did. Do not live here under any circumstances. Please. Don’t do it.
Advice to the owners
Get out of the rental property business. Please. People deserve a base level of human decency.
Stay away from this building at all costs
Pros
Previous management was the only good thing until Salon Realty took over.
Cons
Very poorly managed and awful service. Common laundry machines always broken. Common Rooftop access closed to tenants. Heating system very bad and noisy, had to survive on expensive electric heaters. Bathroom ceiling almost caved in with water leakage. Bed bug issues had to be treated at my own expense. Frequently stolen packages from unsecured drop spot downstairs. Over following garbage disposal attracting rats and roaches. Thin walls led to constant noise complaints, loud footsteps of tenant from above. In spite of already unlivable conditions, Joshua Salon tried to evict me so he could raise the rent upon completion of new Q train stop.
Advice to the owners
I'm surprised this building is still occupied. Property owner should be taken to court and arrested for sub-standard living conditions.
