Neighborhood is relatively quiet most of the time
Cons:
The building is not clean
The super doesn’t seem to care about maintaining the building’s cleanliness
THE ELEVATOR - a legitimate safety hazard; it randomly abruptly stops between floors occasionally. People have also gotten stuck and needed the firefighters to come get them out
No amenities - you’ll need to drag your laundry to the laundromat a few blocks away
