Former tenant·10 months ago

Good and Bad....

Pros

Cheap rent for the area, amazing location, landlord has been quickly responsive to us when we've had issues

Cons

Our neighbors are loud, cockroaches (but the landlord does send an exterminator twice a month and at least it isn't rats), not the cleanest building overall

Advice to the owners

Plz clean the whole building and do a better job policing noise levels

Former tenant·11 months ago

Old old building across from the projects

Pros

It’s close to the L train, and Grand St has a wide range of businesses.

Cons

Feel unsafe across from the projects. Top floor tenants filled hallway with their junk, and wouldn’t let in the exterminator or plumber, so a leak developed and yup, the apartment below theirs got a shit ton of roaches. *My* apartment. So fuck them, and fuck the landlord for not putting his foot down.

Advice to the owners

If you like it when tenants break leases, keep doing what you’re doing.
