charming, except for the rats
Pros
The building has nice original features, like hardwood floors, marble touches, and high ceilings (11 feet in our apartment!). The windows are large and let in a lot of good light.
Cons
We've had rats constantly since moving here almost a year ago. We and other tenants in the building have reached out to the property manager, who has either not responded to us or only sent the exterminator back in. The exterminator poisons the rats and the cycle starts all over. They never make an effort to actually close up the wholes that allow the rats in. Two of the casement windows don't shut all the way. The tub is disgusting and no amount of scrubbing will make it feel clean.
Advice to the owners
Close up the holes in the entire building to prevent the rat problem.
