    Preferably do not move here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Apts are decent amount of space, comes with an hvac system, great water pressure, no lack of hot water. Super/landlord are receptive. Super quiet despite being close to the highway.
    Cons:
    So many cons— the building shakes from time to time, not sure from what. Flies are constantly present inside the building. Hallways smell really bad to the point that guests point it out. And the smell seeps into the apt because of bad insulation. Basement is unfinished and advertised laundry unit is unusable because its so disgusting to be there. Floors in apt are extremely uneven, floors are damaged and half-assed. Electricity inside apts are super unreliable (lots of flickering) and only on one side of the apt wall. Windows are terrible, extreme draft and makes conditions unliveable below 30 degrees F. Apt, again, is not insulated whatsoever, so its a terrible time to live here in the winter.
    Advice to owner:
    FIX THE SMELL, the floors, the basement, the electricity, the insulation… please.

    Such a great experience
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    So much natural light. Direct sunlight.
    Spacious. Kitchen fully equipped. No disparities between room sizes (ideal for roommates).
    Cons:
    One room faces the main street and there would be some noise pollution especially at night because of the garbage trucks.
    Advice to owner:
    Be quicker to respond, especially when it comes to fixes within the unit.
