Unethical Landlord, Unit was falling apart
Pros
The location was great. Apartment was decent enough for the price at the time. No issues with neighbors.
Cons
We rented a unit on the 3rd floor in 2019 to 2020. We had an issue with management not adequately dealing with a rodent problem we had, so we exercised our tenant's rights to hire pest control ourselves and fixed the problem. They refused to allow us to pay a deducted rent and harassed us about it for months and threatened us. When the pandemic happened we asked for deduced rent because we lost our jobs and they denied us– then when we moved out they refused to return our security deposit because "there was a pandemic happening". We took them to small claims court and won our deposit back. Overall very bad experience with management and things were literally falling out of the walls from the day we moved in because it was put together so badly. Also the place was so filthy when we moved in that we had to pay to have it professionally cleaned.
Advice to the owners
I hope the small amount of money you tried to save by denying us basic things we were entitled to as renters was worth the legal fees
Pretty decent for prices
Pros
Landlord is responsive, building itself is always clean, neighbors are very nice and quiet, roof access is a pro
Cons
Some things are run down, mold in bathroom, not in the best shape
