    just don't expect much
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    location was great (plus the view from street facing windows and the roof)
    Cons:
    Always dirty, rodents in lower apartments, mail CONSTANTLY gets stolen, landlord wouldn't fix things that were broken even when we first moved in without some complaints. Management & maintenance had some good people but in general the building should have been kept up WAY better considering the price of units.
    Advice to owner:
    get better locks for the two main front doors, so that its not super easy to break into the building with a credit card and steal packages

    Nice location, old building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The location is fantastic on 2nd Avenue and 12th St. There is basically no noise as it's an air-shaft apartment.
    Cons:
    Air shaft means no natural light whatsoever. Garbage is thrown into a bin at the bottom of the airshaft which is kinda gross. It is taken out weekly but still weird.
