    Solid apartment building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Quick responses when it came to lease renewal and other similar requests, nice neighbors. Decent amount of communication about updates and info on the building.
    Cons:
    Difficult to get repairs done, super changed frequently and didn't often have the means to do all of the jobs they should be able to do. Buzzer confusing for many delivery people and often malfunctioning.
    Advice to owner:
    Invest in a good super and the supplies they need to get things done. Simplify buzzer system.
