Nice block but mean landlord
Pros
Cute building and updated apartments on a nice block
Cons
Landlord is terrible, does not control pests
Advice to the owners
Clean the building
Great location, not so great landlord
Pros
Amazing location, nice exterior, super quiet. Decent sized apartments as well, albeit dated. Pet friendly! Nice neighbors. Clean.
Cons
The landlord is like Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde. Nice in person, pretty reasonable in person, but then if you interact with her at all via text or email, be prepared for her to act like you work for her and she's the world's worst boss. Not to mention that house rules apply to you but not her. "This is a quiet building," except for when she's talking to/screaming at people (or herself) loudly in the hallway. "Do not leave packages in the hall," unless it's her stuff, which will sit there for weeks. Plus the building obviously needs work (missing tiles all over the floors, stairs are hideous, some apartments have been updated but most have not).

Be nice! Be normal!
