Trade-offs but mostly losses
Pros
Conveniently located to everything, transit, laundry, stores and restaurants. Super is nice and helpful.
Cons
Garbage situation is terrible. Good luck throwing out anything in the summer without touching the bugs on the lids. Pest control is a losing battle and could never feel comfortable at night. Plus water pressure is unpredictable.
Advice to the owners
Look into a new pest control company and re-think garbage arrangement.
Ok first apartment
Pros
Heat, closeness to transit (multiple options)
Cons
Garbage situation, roaches, dirty, horrible management
Advice to the owners
Treat the tenants like they're humans.
