1L is a Nightmare
Former Tenant
Pros:
Decent backyard space
Cons:
House parties every night, razor thin walls, A/C units never worked. If you move here, I would not recommend the ground floor. I lived here in 2022 and the neighbor in 1L was loud and inconsiderate to everyone in the building.
Advice to owner:
Listen to your tenants
