    The worst! Franklin Guerrero not a good landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The apartments are big and bright
    Cons:
    - No Super
    - No contact to landlord
    - Takes long to fix errors in apartments
    - Too many unfixed violations
    - No working fire system
    Advice to owner:
    Give your landlord certification back you suck! Drop that you should never be a landlord anywhere else. The city should revoke your certificate
