Great Location but need to improve

Pros

The location is great

Cons

The staircase is never clean (I take the stairs every day). Garbage management is terrible; you need to leave your garbage outside your door. No Garbage cans. In the winter, the heat is on for a very short time, and the apartment is freezing most of the time. Very difficult to recycle.

Advice to the owners

Invest in garbage cans outside of the apartments. Better heat management. Wash the staircase more often.
