Great place to live, hot water issues

Pros

The building is very well staffed and most tenants/shareholders are quiet and civilized people. The location is wonderful, the doormen and staff are helpful and kind. the units themselves are charming and nice.

Cons

There have been consistent issues with hot water since I moved in. Shower either takes 15-20 minutes to get hot, only reaches lukewarm temperatures, or can turn cold especially during periods of bad weather. Maintenance has definitely been responsive and tried to address it but the hot water remains iffy.

Advice to the owners

Given it's an old building, I'm not sure much can be done about the hot water - it would also be nice if there could be more enforcement of people not smoking marijuana in their units since the smell does definitely spread to other units.
