    Roach infested apartment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The area is quiet and you are able to find parking easily
    Cons:
    I lived on in apartment 3G which is a sublet. The owner is extremely cheap the cabinets are from 1920s the apartment is full of roaches and a fly infestation. The heat is very low to none existing I had to have a space heater which bumped my electricity bill during the winter.
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the kitchen, take care of roach infestation
    Over 3 years ago
    It’s okay I guess.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Close proximity to all essential businesses, the park and train. Laundry and elevator in building.
    Cons:
    The building is RARELY CLEANED. Roaches are a thing. If anything ever breaks, the live in super just ignores you and the problem does not get solved. Outdoor cleanliness is also not a thing. The laundry room is small and machines are always filthy or broken. Mind you, there are 3 washers and 2 dryers for 7 floors of apartments. Packages get stolen.
    Advice to owner:
    Get a cleaning/maintenance group ASAP.
