Great for Students
Pros
The building is clean, the super is helpful. The living room for all ‘F’ apartments is huge and the kitchen has plenty of storage and counter space. The rooms are decently sized and it comes furnished as it is university housing.
Cons
The bathroom does not have a bathtub. There is no dishwasher or in-unit laundry in the apartment. The laundry is in the basement and there are times all the machines are occupied. The inner bedrooms do not get any sunlight and with just one window, it’s not possible to open it if there’s an air conditioner attached. The heating can get extreme during the winters and there’s no regulator for it.
Advice to the owners
Try to give tenants any way to control the heating in the rooms. The rooms are boiling during the winter.
