    East village sweet spot
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    No bugs/rodents, the maintenance team is VERY fast and always fix whatever the issue is.
    Cons:
    Trash in hallway (only family on second floor), oven barely works
    Advice to owner:
    Apt on the second floor are hoarders and leave trash in the hallway. They are alone the sole reason for majority of they issues in the building
