    Decent, quiet building, but old
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Cleaning at least twice a week ( for the most part)
    Quiet, neighbors occasionally play music
    Rooms are pretty big compared to newer buildings
    Security door
    Usually quick to fix issues within building
    Lots of transportation and trees right outside
    Lots of windows in apartment , more sunlight
    Improved over the years
    Cons:
    Shoddy electrical work
    Leaks, and some cracked walls
    Don’t always respond to issues, have to call multiple times
    Walk up (if that’s a problem)
    Gets pretty hot in the summer, and because of electrical work not every room can have cooling.
    Poor ventilation especially in bathroom.
    Advice to owner:
    Check in on apartments, respond more quickly to complaints.
