Not the worst, far from the best
Former Tenant
Pros:
Not a lot of noise from the neighbors (it’s a loud street tho) pretty cheap and spacious apts, it does have an elevator…but it hasn’t worked in a year, neighbors are very nice people
Cons:
Elevator hasn’t worked in a year (and this building has elderly and disabled people), the stairs keep getting holes in them which is pretty dangerous, can hardly get hot water most of the time, heat is spotty, they don’t take care of the bugs, when we had a literal hole in our ceiling from a water leak they didn’t fix it for about 2 months and other people suffered the same
Advice to owner:
Please just care about us a little more and stop raising the rent
