Nice and bad
Pros
Reasonable price. Washer and dryer in unit. Good for share with a roommate.
Cons
**we lived in the basement** There heat coming in the apartment 24/7 all year long, due to the hot water pile or heating pile or some pile seal within the ceiling running along the side of unit. There’s street cats come around if you are allergic to cats, that would be a downside. There’s also a lot of bugs coming in due to the access from the street and the trash area close by.
Good with the bad
Pros
This was my childhood home and I’ve had many problems with the building in the past. Currently the stairs are being cleaned (though not as thoroughly as I would like) and the garbage is being taking out accordingly. The location of this building is what makes it a gem so if you’re willing to sacrifice, you’ll be pretty central.
Cons
There’s a lot of noise especially on weekends from the barbershop across the street, so if you face the front it’s very obnoxious. Someone smokes marijuana in their apartment and the building occasionally builds up with the horrid smell.
Advice to the owners
Keep being responsive on emails, its helped a lot. Possibly reach out to tenants once a month to see how the cleaning has been in the building. Sometimes its great, other times not so much
