Conveniently located and fair price
Pros
Maintenance requests are promptly dealt with. The location is good if you care about proximity to transit: building is just a 5 min walk from the 6 train and many buses. Superintendent lives in building and is responsive (but a little rude). They send in pest control once a month to spray your apartment if needed. Annual rent increases were minimal.
Cons
The train and outside noise from the bar and street below can be loud sometimes from the street-facing side, but you get used to it if you keep your window closed. The radiator in my unit was so loud (e.g. banging noises) that I couldn't sleep without airpods during the winter months. Trash is stored inside on the ground floor so it can get smelly between pickup days. Management adds a sneaky clause in the lease rider that makes you move out on a "business day" if the last day of the month ends on a weekend or holiday (with no prorated rent to compensate). Ashley from Sassouni Management is particularly nasty and unprofessional around move-out communication.
