    upset tenant
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Quite and friendly neighborhood.
    Cons:
    This building is extremely dirty gets cleaned @ twice a week, apartments full of mice due to the poor maintenance of the building. Apartments that need to have repairs done take forever and never get completed.
    Advice to owner:
    Change the super, and pay attention to the well being of the tenants.
