Paper thin walls + Weed Smoke
Former Tenant
Pros:
Friendly doormen and staff.
Cons:
Old building and the smell of weed smoke was a daily occurrence. Building is “non-smoking” but this is far from the case and management will do NOTHING but send out an occasional email. I had to open my windows all year before my lease ended from 30 degree or below weather to 90+ days just to avoid my bedroom from filling with the neighbor’s smoke. I even went through the desperate measure of moving my entire bed from the bedroom to the living room. If you are neighbors with dogs/toddlers you will hear everything. No sleeping in whatsoever. For more than a year there was massive leaking from the upstair bathroom, mold, and a hole that maintenance would patch over that would then leak all over again. Door knob was old and loose and fell out into the hallway at one point.
Advice to owner:
Do something about smokers
