Hot water issues
Pros
location, laundry, elevator
Cons
have to run water for a while to get hot water. management company terrible, raises rent frequently.
Good Building, Needs New Elevator
Pros
Super was very responsive and did a good job of keeping everything tidy. Heat works well and water was only out for repairs once or twice. Laundry system was actually pretty good too.
Cons
Elevator started going out last summer and has been in a really annoying repair loop since then. The Super outsources work to bad vendors who do poor repairs. Management company is really spotty with communications and almost screwed us with lease renewal, but we worked it out.
Advice to the owners
Do a legit elevator repair and please get a new office manager!
