Decent prices, but unresponsive management and slow maintenance
Former Tenant
Pros:
The price is okay for the current market.
Cons:
The management and super are rude, unresponsive, and generally unhelpful. The maintenance guy is really nice but he is at the whims of the super, who is never on your side. They may attend to your issues, but not after significant nagging, and they leave jobs half done. Pray there are no significant issues with your place. If there are only minor problems, you can probably deal with things on your own and survive.
Advice to owner:
Hire a new super and attend to tenants' issues more promptly. Clean the place and make sure there are no issues before a new tenant moves in.
