Terrible Landlord and Superintendent
Pros
The building did not have any pests, which was really the only pro.
Cons
The apartments are cheaply made and maintained and overpriced. Nothing worked including the combo washer/dryer machine. The electric heating was incrediby weak and left me freezing in the winter. The windows were thin, which made for terrible weather and noise insulation. The super was nonresponsive, he had to be contacted multiple time to address any single issue, and he was rude when he did respond. All staff were rude.
Advice to the owners
Get out of the rental industry.
Ok building, makes effort to manage issues
Pros
The landlord regularly sent an exterminator to manage pests, especially with the serious rat problem on the street due to a nearby building. The super was responsive and helpful.
Cons
There was a serious rat problem on the street and that made it uncomfortable to walk by at night. There is no laundry in the building and the laundromat at the end of the block doesn't have the greatest hours for someone who works full-time.
