    Horrible landlord - Steer Clear
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The location only.
    Cons:
    The landlord would not provide adequate heating, would not respond to mold issues which ruined all of my furniture, let somebody live in the basement illegally that left mattresses in the hall were covered in bedbugs. Absolutely horrible landlord. The building is covered in mold. Broken gates on windows led to multiple break ins. Told me he would enter the apartment at any time as he owned it. Really horrible experience.
    Advice to owner:
    Try harder and stop disrespecting women.

    Not great
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location is good, hallway is cleaned weekly, trash is always taken out.
    Cons:
    There are a few weird things in the building. I can only speak for our unit.

    - super moldy bathroom (never fixed by landlord mold always came back)
    - windows are drafty and we pay our own heat (electric heaters) which get super expensive
    - animal living in wall? so many weird sounds coming from one wall of the apartment landlord never looked into it
    - stoop volume- being the only stoop on the block people sit there and are sometimes loud. Not a huge drawback from me but something others might want to think about.
    - ceiling / heater leaks. this summer all the ac/heat units leaked and the ceiling leaked. landlord was not very fast about fixing the issue.
