    Not bad... but not great
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The building was in a super convenient area, so for people who prioritize location, this isn't a bad place to live. The area is super lively and I never felt unsafe coming home late at night, whether it was during the week or over the weekend. All of the tenants seem to be in their early through mid-to-late 20s, which was cool. I made a lot of friends in the building who I continue to keep in touch with! We lived in a true 2 bedroom and it wasn't bad! Also the building itself is relatively clean and I never experienced any pest-related issues other than like, ONE bug that crawled up the drain. However, that's about all of the positive things I can say.
    Cons:
    Management is super unresponsive and extremely greedy. Instead of having regular heaters, they switched heaters in the building to ones plugged into the wall, forcing the tenants to pay for the heat bill as opposed to including it in the rent. The heater in my room was completely broken and management couldn't figure out the part needed to fix the heater so they just gave me a space heater instead... which was fine and probably kept our electric bill lower than it would have been if the heater actually worked. Also, we didn't have mailboxes for like 3 months, which is super illegal. Packages are constantly stolen (through a mix of being an inside job and by the people constantly loitering on the stoop) and management was adamant about the fact that they just simply could not install cameras inside the hallways, which is a bunch of BS. Also.. sometimes individuals experiencing homelessness will fall asleep on the stoop.. and other tenants and I saw others shooting up/engaging in illegal activities on the stoop late at night as well. However, as far as I know, nothing's ever happened and tenants have never been harmed.
    Advice to owner:
    Stop being so greedy and pay for your tenants' heat. Also, handle serious issues (like the mailboxes) in a timely manner and be more responsive.
