Bad mouse problem
Former Tenant
Pros:
Laundry in unit
Cons:
Really bad mice problem, they would come out of the radiators. We came across dozens in the 1 year we lived there. Elevator rarely worked and we lived on the 6th floor, when we moved out it took a whole day carrying furniture and other heavy items down 6 flights of stairs.
Advice to owner:
Quit. Let them hire someone who actually knows how to treat people and manage a property.
