It's a good building with a decent landlord, but rent increases every year
Pros
Great location, and the building, although old, is well-managed.
Cons
The top floor tenants of this building are good friends with the landlord, and they are some of the rudest neighbors I have ever encountered in the city. They're a young family with kids, and the kids are incessantly loud — they are literally stomping on the floors and throwing balls at the ground on purpose, often until late into the night. The parents are completely unresponsive to any pleas to the contrary. Landlord is good, but interested in increasing rent every year as opposed to holding onto reliable and stable tenants.
Thoughtful landlord / owner
Pros
Landlord / owner lives in the building so you can really see the detail and care that goes into the building. He is very responsive, friendly, and good at what he does. He is helpful even beyond his duties. Never have had a pest problem, exterminator comes once a month on the dot! Someone even comes once a month to vacuum and shampoo the carpets!
Cons
Location is kind of a deadzone but still have easy access to anything you need
