Overpriced Shoebox - you are paying for location
Pros
Good location by the train. Super is generally pretty responsive. Can’t really hear neighbors most of the time.
Cons
Extremely small. One tiny closet in the bedroom. No insulation - we had to get thermal curtains, hang blankets and thumbtack down the curtains to try to keep the cold air out in the winter and we still had to wear hoodies and blankets inside. Also apparently the majority of the time we lived here the building was not up to code so they were constantly sending people to do things to the unit. Oven has only half worked the year we have been here and the never came to being us a new stove knob to replace the one that was missing when we moved in. Zero frills you are only paying for the location, so if you don’t mind paying $3000 for a cold shoebox this is a great place.
Advice to the owners
Get your buildings up to code before renting them out. Also trying to charge $3k+ for this apartment is highway robbery.
