Pros:
Great location with lots of restaurants, bars and gyms nearby, decent rent for the size of the apartments, landlord lenient on pets and Airbnb
Cons:
Older building with poor water pressure and old structure of the building. No amenity. Building repairs not always done by professionals, so some issues such as ceiling peeling caused by leaks from the floor above, tend to recur.

Use professionals for repairs
