Street is relatively quiet, neighbors are nice, the appliances in my kitchen are updated. Super is responsive and maintains the building well.
Cons:
Marketed as an elevator building but the elevator has been down since December (it is currently April) and prior to that, it was in unsafe conditions. Door would randomly open in between floors while in the elevator. Owners do not respond to emails and do not give us any notice or updates.
Laundry in basement but doesn’t wash very well and cycles are very long and pricy at $3 per cycle (that price increased 2x in 1.5 years). Basement is infested with cockroaches every summer.
Thin walls, you can hear neighbors having sex and having loud conversations, you have to get lucky with quiet neighbors.
Advice to owner:
Respond to your tenants emails & give us updates on our building. Don’t market the building as an elevator building when it is a walk up.
