Thee stars for the deals that they offer and the indoor pool (included with the $75 amenity fee). The leasing office did not even return my call after a tour. After following up via email, a real person, Monica, finally got back to me and was pretty responsive. I attended an open house, and it was very rushed and dismissive. It almost felt like profiling because I never received a business card or follow up email, even after coming back to see the actual unit (open house shows model units). I had to track down a link to the application. I ended up not applying since I didn't want to incur vet fees for the required verification letter. The views from the leasing office were beautiful. Amenities are run by a third party, Iowa Sports. They are offering two months free on a 14 month lease until April 2018 (which all of the leasing staff was not aware).
The reason i gave 2 stars is for the friendly front desk staff, the maintenance staff is quick to respond to any calls, and the actual apartment units are nice and spacious...but the ammenties are a joke and not worth the $$.
Cons:
Do not rent here.My boyfriend and I moved into the HUB in march. We were so excited about the "luxury apartment" and made the decision to live there because of the ammenties.The truth- the HUB outsources their ammenity space (club 333 gym, pool, outdoor) to Iowa Sports. This company makes you feel like your in an adult day care. They restrict you to 4 guests in the outside area. I had a birthday bbq and they wouldnt let family/friends in because i was at my 4 person max. Completely embarassing. Guests have to sign a waiver to even step outside. The gym is suppose to open at 5:30am but no one is there and lights are off everytime i go there at 5:30. The gym is currently closed TODAY new years day, the day of resolutions for health. The gym is IN the builiding and there is fingerprint access but you need a memeber of iowa sports to be there to use it... (fyi the ashland, a real luxury high rise, across the street has a 24 hour gym).For the first 6 months there was tarp, and saw dust down our entire 9th floor hallway. Our apartment # sign was hanging by duct tape, our entire hallway constantly smells like weed and nothing has been done after multiple complaints.This building is a complete dissappointment. When i see people on tours i want to yell at them don't do it!!I have friends in the building who share the same frustrations with the hub.Dont be fooled by the glitz and glam and promises. Were moving out in march... and the rooftop still isnt done after a year here with zero updates from the HUB.
HUB is a great place to live, the new building is beautiful and management most accommodating. The amenities and location are a bonus. Welcome to Brooklyn!
