    A super? What even is that?
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s close to the C train
    Cons:
    Quite literally everything else. It’s impossible to get the super’s attention or get ahold of him. Our dishwasher never worked since moving in two years ago. He told us the day we moved in to fix it with tape.
