Nothing more, nothing less
Former Tenant
Pros:
Reasonably priced and decent sized apartment.
Cons:
Heaters are VERY noisy. Management is not very responsive or accommodative. Management seems focused on turning studios into one-bedrooms for the couple hundred bucks extra rent per month but takes away vital space.
Advice to owner:
Consider investing some money into the property.
