Former tenant·2 months ago

Carbon Monoxide and unresponsive landlord

Pros

Beautiful building, nice quiet street, nice neightbors

Cons

There was carbon monoxide in our apartment and no smoke or CO detector upon move in. The landlord was unresponsive which led to the energy company turning off the heat and hot water for 5 months because they found illegal piping.

Better management / building management

Pros

Close to mass transit

Cons

Renting rooms to people off the street.
