Decent, quiet building, but old
Former Tenant
Pros:
Cleaning at least twice a week ( for the most part)
Quiet, neighbors occasionally play music
Rooms are pretty big compared to newer buildings
Security door
Usually quick to fix issues within building
Lots of transportation and trees right outside
Lots of windows in apartment , more sunlight
Improved over the years
Cons:
Shoddy electrical work
Leaks, and some cracked walls
Don’t always respond to issues, have to call multiple times
Walk up (if that’s a problem)
Gets pretty hot in the summer, and because of electrical work not every room can have cooling.
Poor ventilation especially in bathroom.
Advice to owner:
Check in on apartments, respond more quickly to complaints.
