Not the Best but Fine
Former Tenant
Pros:
Super is very responsive and friendly. Is able to help. Neighbors are nice and helpful too, lots of young people.
Cons:
Mice problem that was very fully addressed. Heating is incredibly loud during the winter and no AC so the summers are sweltering. Small kitchen. Drains keep getting backed up. Water damage. The unit is not in great shape.

Bad Super Response
Former Tenant
Pros:
I loved living here and the area; lots of space and well heated in the winter.
Cons:
The super does not respond unless you contact management, then he will get mad at you for contacting them. Difficult to work with.
