    No Hot Water and Broken Front Door
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The apartment itself is well renovated and clean.
    Cons:
    The radiators are turned on late in the cold season and off before the warm season. The front door to the building is broken so that it is unlocked all of the time such that packages are stolen and strangers are often in the building. The super is completely unresponsive and unhelpful. The landlords are even worse. The hot water works sporadically. There are many week stretches without hot water (think cold showers all of the time). The management has been unresponsive to these issues that should be fixed by law.
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the front door. Fix the hot water. Follow the laws.

    Fine personal experience
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Pretty responsive + Pleasant super, management has been generally responsive via email, rarely had issues w/ apartment, not a ton of units in building (private).
    Cons:
    The trash area outside is often full, but they only pick up so often, so what’re you gonna do. Intercom has never worked, and the front door is often unlocked / broken.
    Advice to owner:
    Make sure the intercom system works.

    Beautiful needs work on pest control
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s so beautiful, the kitchen and bathrooms are modern. There’s an elevator.
    Cons:
    Roaches. Roaches. Roaches everywhere.
    Advice to owner:
    Pest control
