Spacious but damn
Former Tenant
Pros:
Spacious apartment with good light. Super was relatively responsive.
Cons:
Roach city - both in the apt building and in the unit itself. Exterminator didn’t seem to help. Poorly insulated so could hear everything outside + heat in the summer was brutal. Poor structured pipes which would lead to flooding.
