Absent management and ownership.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nice location, decent access to B/Q and 2/5 trains. Lots of families in the building.
Cons:
Impossible to contact management/ownership; for any maintenance needed we basically had to file a 311 complaint to get anything done, which happened frequently.
Advice to owner:
Keep up to date phone numbers available, with a human able to respond or at least a message box!

Nightmare Management and Roaches
Former Tenant
Pros:
There is little that I can say that is good about this apartment. Almost nothing has been consistently up to standard.
Cons:
High ceilings add to the echo that is present in the apartment and it is exacerbated by the little to no insulation in the building, so you can hear all of your neighbors walking through their apartments. and it sounds like the stampede from Jumanji. Heat varies wildly throughout the apartment, and depends on the time of day, because the landlord does not keep the radiators on overnight to save money and avoid inspection violations. Management has been extremely unresponsive and has blocked our numbers. There has been roaches throughout the apartment since we moved in, and our extermination efforts have been in vain. This has been brought up to management, and never addressed. We have never paid a gas bill for this apartment because the landlord refuses to provide the meter number. The issues go on and on, but my fingers are getting tired.
Advice to owner:
Respond to your tenants.
