It’s fine I guess
Pros
It’s a place to live without roaches and the neighbors aren’t loud. The neighborhood is really lovely and bustling.
Cons
Water damage and mold issues combine with a super unresponsive landlord to form a miserable stuffy summer. The apartments are small and there is poor ventilation.
Advice to the owners
Have an actually responsive landlord or super who actually come and fix problems. Building desperately needs work. Stairs are falling apart for example.
There Are Rats But I Still Considered Renewing!
Pros
Inexpensive and large 2 bedroom, big kitchen, very nice and helpful super, lenient landlord
Cons
Rat/mice Infestation, Two rooms without windows, slant in floor, I had to buy a smoke alarm, one time the floor above us leaked through our bathroom ceiling, my radiator leaked, and I had to make heat complaints at least three times in two years
Advice to the owners
Stop using the sticky pads for mice. There are more humane options. Make sure there are smoke alarms.
