You get what you pay for
Former Tenant
Pros:
Diverse neighbors, one of the bedrooms is very large and gets a lot of sun. Cheap for the amount of space. Close to a train line.
Cons:
Paper thin walls/floors where you can hear your neighbor sneeze (amongst all the other things). Cheap reno made to look nice where things have deteriorated over time. Mice, roaches, bugs in general (though management will send someone if you notify). Right next door to a big party house with full PA speakers and DJ nights.
Advice to owner:
Invest in long term solutions and building improvements instead of bandaid fixes and you’ll be able to keep good tenants for longer.

Good building and area- but expensive
Former Tenant
Pros:
The apartment itself is spacious and there's laundry in the building
Cons:
No free fumigation and we did have a few issues with cockroaches in the winter, and almost an ant infestation in the room closest to the backyard during the spring.
Advice to owner:
Fumigate and make sure to seal the rooms
