    Unit is fine, building is horrible.
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Nice interior of unit, dishwasher, large space, pretty brick, high ceilings, water included in rent.
    Cons:
    Mold growing in the basement where laundry is, always nasty hallways, roaches around. Heat never turns off in the winter, super is impossible to get ahold of. Trash is rarely taken are of.
    Advice to owner:
    hire better management

    Decent Starter Appointment
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    - Neighborhood was cool and full of culture
    - New units with renovated appliances
    Cons:
    - Walls were thin so it feels like your neighbors are in your living room
    - Roaches, but there is monthly pest control to help combat them
