    The only good thing here is if you have cheap rent, and even then is it worth it
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Cheap rent, location
    Cons:
    lying and unresponsive landlord, waste of space super, lack of common area cleanliness, tons of rats, lack of heat, lack of safety, windows older than my grandma, nothing gets fixed, bedbugs, faulty wiring, exterior doors without proper locks, shitty loud and dirty street
    Advice to owner:
    Property owner should fix things properly the first time. property owner should hire a competent super that speaks English or at least attempts to understand google translate. Property owner should hire professionals to fix things.
