Former tenant·23 minutes ago

Extremely cheap housing, pests, small, dirty

Pros

- Cheap rent (but it's a factor of the location) - Common hallways cleaned every once in a while

Cons

- Rats almost always in the back alleyway to the laundry room - Hot water/heat often turned off for hours during winter. Leaving cold showers / cold rooms - They did something with the pipes in 2026 where the water pressure got a lot worse - Everything feels dirty / look sold

Advice to the owners

Stop shutting off the hot water during the winter
