“Unit E2 Pros: Nice pre-war details and kind neighbors. It’s also affordable and rent stabilized. Cons: Everything else. EVERYTHING. The elevator breaks constantly, and there are many people who have mobility issues. The lobby, stair wells, elevator, and hallways are never cleaned and it smells. The pest issue, especially roaches, is unmanageable. I keep my apartment so clean and I still see one at least once a week. I even went as far as buying my own pest control supplies and it helped for a bit but it’s a building-wide issue. They need to do a major extermination. Repairs are nearly impossible to get done—you make appointments through management and then they never show up. I’ve stayed home several times from work only to have them never show up. Advice to landlord: Please make this a livable building for tenants who deserve basic access to clean, sanitary, accessible living spaces.”

Cons: EVERYTHING and I'm not even being dramatic. First, the elevator breaks down every week and they haven't fixed it. There are many people in the building that are older and have canes and are forced to take the stairs. Next, there are roaches EVERYWHERE!!! It's disgusting and no matter how clean you keep your apartment, they still come. The supers are CREEPY!! Can't even have them help because they stare creepily and abuse having your personal cell number. Also, people don't respect the trash room so its disgusting. Advice to landlord: At least fix things around so when you enter the building, it feels like you're coming home”
— 130 LENOX ROAD · Brooklyn“Pros: The building is a very old building so because of that the rooms are large and it’s near Flatbush area which is accessible. But the rooms are not well maintained either. Cons: Stay away they steal packages and cameras never work Management don’t care, Super lazy, Rats, leaks every time it rains. Management is a bully if you let them, very toxic environment They are fraudulent they pretend to be you and withdraw your complaint to the city. Neighbors are loud and smoke in front of the building all day. Advice to landlord: Sell it to someone who cares about their tenants”
