Overall fine place except for pests
Former Tenant
Pros:
Quiet, good neighborhood, lots around to eat, close to groceries.
Cons:
We had a rat chewing through our walls at night, took weeks if not months for the landlord to take care of it. Finally did and hadn’t had a problem since. Continued having mice tho.
Advice to owner:
Be more responsive.

Nightmare neighbor and nonexistent landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
Railroad style apartment Exposed brick walls
Cons:
Horrific experience dealing with harassment from a neighbor, resulting in a police report and more turmoil. The landlord was virtually unresponsive to every complaint regarding this for nearly a year and a half, until it was made clear that our apartment would be evacuated and the lease broken due to neglect. Mice were a problem at one point but extermination was called and it did seem to mostly eliminate the problem.
Advice to owner:
Find someone to manage this property who can be involved and attentive to tenants needs, big and small. Not responding to urgent complaints and concerns about dangerous neighbors is inexcusable.
