It’s not worth how cheap it is
Former Tenant
Pros:
Really can’t think of any. The neighborhood is nice enough, but the landlord shouldn’t get any credit for that
Cons:
Tiny units, if you want to take a hot shower, be prepared to wait 15 minutes for it to warm up, roaches and mice EVERYWHERE. They had the regular exterminator then too, it made no difference, kitchen was disgusting when we moved in, super is overworked so he doesn’t answer and when you call the management company they give you grief for calling the people you’re paying thousands a month to instead of the overworked super. Please don’t live here, it’s not worth whatever you’re saving.
Advice to owner:
Please throw a few thousand at a really intense pest control sweep in every unit and the underbelly of the building. It’s absolutely disgusting that you continue to rent to people with an infestation like that. Someone is going to get sick.

Worst Apartment of my Life
Former Tenant
Pros:
There was nothing that I liked about this place, except maybe the couple of gentlemen who did maintenance. They were very nice and did they best they could.
Cons:
Roach and mice infestation. Contacted the super several times about it, yet the issue was never solved.
The glass on the front door of the building was smashed several times.
Trash left in the stairwell— we even saw used needles once.
Noise was awful. The neighbors below us would blast music at 4am. Like my room would vibrate from it. Complained several times and nothing was ever done about it.
All the windows in the apartment were defective in some way. They would either never open or close properly.
Oven had serious issues that were actually a hazard. Luckily the super was attentive to those and fixed it when we called.
We were paying way more than the place was worth.
Advice to owner:
Do better to make that building cleaner and safer for the residents.
