    Out of maintenance building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Cool interior with lots of character decorated by a previous tenant who passed away from old age and lack of heat in the winter
    Cons:
    Everything
    In consistent heat and hot water.
    The staircase looks like from an abandoned building
    Advice to owner:
    Do something

    Sh*t show.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    No pros. You’re over paying for apartments that haven’t been renovated In 10+ years and a non responsive owner who won’t even text you back during an emergency.
    Cons:
    Everything. When I first moved in there was an amazing super who was so nice and did an awesome job. Now I don’t even know the New supers name or number. The landlord will never ever respond and when they do it’s full of accusations like late rent and they don’t even care about what you’re trying to tell
    Them. One of the younger girls in the building told me she was trying to tell them that her lease is ending and she’s moving out and no one has gotten back to her at all since January. The building is so poorly managed there was even a time in March where we didn’t have hot water for two weeks. There’s tenets that leave gigantic unopened packages in the hallways for
    Months and won’t answer the door when you knock and there’s been roaches on the two bottom floors forever.
    Advice to owner:
    Get it together or sell the place.
