It was fine, great location
Pros
My roommates were great but the building is pretty much what you see is what you get. The management was responsive.
Cons
There were mice.
Advice to the owners
None
Great space, good management
Pros
Management is very responsive (they replaced our fridge, provided monthly extermination appointments and were flexible to negotiating rent price significantly lower even pre-COVID). The space was big & sunny and on a quiet street. I loved living here.
Cons
Mice were a problem several times throughout living there, the walls have a lot of holes. Neighbors were pretty transient and had a couple of weird incidents (fights, Airbnb). Because the building is old, floor creaks a lot of you have neighbors above you. No fire escape. No roof access. Packages often got left out the door and stolen (I blame UPS for that).
Advice to the owners
Give access to the roof, put laundry machine in the building (laundromat is a bit far away from here). Make updates to insulation to keep mice out. Overall though, very responsive.
