    Great super but pests
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Super and his assistant are really responsive. If you need something fixed they do it really quickly.
    Cons:
    Pests are just too much. There is monthly extermination but it isn't as effective as I would like. Also kitchens are pretty old and in need of an upgrade.
    Advice to owner:
    Find a better solution to pest problems. It would make the building a much more comfortable.
