    It's nice
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - The garbage dump is behind the building which is nice
    - The water pressure is good
    - The rooms are small, but definitely liveable
    - Super is responsive
    Cons:
    - The halls can be dirty and ill lit
    - For some reason the windows to the halls are opened and not closable so things fly in
    Advice to owner:
    close the windows in the stairways

    Low-maintinence, decent place to live
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Great location, nice neighbors, responsive management. If you get a renovated apartment, you’re set
    Cons:
    While the neighbors in the building are nice, the rest of the neighborhood is a fan of fireworks all summer.

    Generally decent
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Quiet street, things generally in good repair. Super is friendly and generally able to fix things. Monthly exterminator visits.
    Cons:
    Mice. Sometimes roaches but less recently. Garbage could be taken out more often. Sometimes repairs take a while, super gets overwhelmed maybe. Intercom is lacking. Heat could come on earlier in the season, sometimes I've had to twist their arm about it.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a better Intercom, it's very difficult to use. Garbage twice daily would be helpful, it piles up. Turn the thermostat up a couple degrees in the spring and fall.
