Could be worse but definitely could be better
Former Tenant
Pros:
Convenient place and area for me
Cons:
Building was kinda old, had constant issues with hot water, water pressure, heating, etc. Management was a disaster on multiple fronts, response time, awareness of issues, communication. Same thing with building maintenance. There is absolutely no need for responsible, respectful tenants to have to deal with these recurring issues. Also they sent a letter to us one time saying we owed rent when in fact we had all paid and it was their fault someone in the office had misplaced my check after they had already taken the money out of my account.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive and be more aware of the issues with the building. If the property owner can’t be reached for whatever reason there needs to be someone on call to help resolve issues, same thing goes for building maintenance. Building either needs new owners or the current owner needs to clean house and get better staffing.

Cockroaches and water issues
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cheap if you get Roommates because you were also near the one train
Cons:
Pest control never came out, had cockroaches throughout the entire time I was there. There was a flood on the fifth floor, and it ended up flooding every floor below it, no one checked in on us. No one came to fix the issues, they did not care
Advice to owner:
Appreciate you redoing the floors and the new mailboxes. However, there has been flood damage in my apartment for the last four months. Also, what they currently charge, tho affordable, is not worth the headache of the area.
