Pests + Bad Landlord. NOT RECOMMENDED
Pros
Building itself has good tenants
Cons
This building has serious issues that never get properly addressed. There are constant pest problems, including a significant number of mice, and despite reaching out to the landlord regularly (calls and texts almost every month), nothing is actually resolved. Alan repeatedly says someone will come, but no one ever does. The landlord/owner (Alan) also threatens tenants. On top of that, he looks for any opportunity to charge extra fees and will make up questionable charges to squeeze more money out of tenants. After a year of living here, issues that we had upon move in from the last tenants were never resolved AND Alan tried to charge for that. The area immediately outside the building also feels unsafe, which only adds to the overall negative experience living here.
Don’t live here
Pros
Lots of places nearby for whatever you need
Cons
The appliances (microwave, stove, fridge) are cheap as hell, they are likely to break during your time there. The building is right on 3rd avenue and it’s very loud. You can hear everything that goes on outside. The worst part is that it’s infested with rodents. It’s right next to a McDonald’s and every single night I would see a mouse in the apartment
Advice to the owners
Don’t think he’ll bother to listen so no point
