    Stingy Landlord
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building is in great location. Landlord was mostly responsive in reasonable time as issues arose.
    Cons:
    The bottom line is that the landlord, Abul, is CHEAP. This building was built in 1930 and feels minimally updated since then. There’s no buzzer to let your guests in; you have to go to the front door to meet them. Abul hasn’t updated the apartment doors (like every as far as I can tell) and my lock broke TWICE while I lived there - I was trapped inside and had to call a locksmith to get me out, then Abul refused to pay for the emergency lock service even though locks are entirely a landlord’s responsibility. He finally agreed to pay the second time it happened, but then deducted it from my security deposit. Quite a headache. Also, I had BED BUGS. Thankfully landlord was prompt in getting an exterminator, but after speaking with other tenants, I learned that bed bugs are a chronic problem in some units. Overall, this building is not worth it.
    Advice to owner:
    Put some money into your building and be a responsible landlord!
