Worst apartment I’ve had in the city
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location. This is the only convenience.
Cons:
Rodent infestation, ceiling floods, leaks, unclean water in tub occasionally, poor management, completely unresponsive to repair requests. When they do they send the super who can’t fix anything and they refuse to hire outside contractors. They would rather replace broken appliances with used ones from junk yards than buy new appliances. Don’t live here. If you can avoid it.
Advice to owner:
Renovate and stop being cheap.
