Rodents in the ceiling/basement/courtyard

Pros

The apartment is nice.

Cons

There have been rodents running around in the ceiling since October 2024 until I left in July 2025. Management has done very little to fix the issue despite multiple attempts on our part to have the issue fixed. Building manager is completely useless - took them 5 months to fix the garbage situation to stop the rats from getting in. The whole building smells like dead rodent (per the exterminator).
