    Property management was great!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    This is a cute building on a quite street. Zuzu management was amazing to work with. Very flexible, kind and helpful.
    Cons:
    The apartment is a little small with light only on the two opposite ends of the apartment
    Advice to owner:
    Would be great to have the basement cleaned up

    Just fine
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good neighborhood w lots of good food and parks, updated appliances, quiet street, pest free, has character, maintenance is responsive and knowledgeable
    Cons:
    Windows and doors are not well insulated, can smell all food neighbors cook, and cigarette smoke within the apartment. Winter snow clearing was minimal and left stairs precarious at times. Water pressure is great until it's not. The cold water pressure will completely turn off mid shower while the hot water stays on making it very dangerous. At other times the hot water won't get hot. Lots of animals in the building making noise. No AC, minimal airflow. A lot of the work has not been done properly and rapid falls apart-paint, grouting of the floors, seals in windows. Heat gets extremely hot in winter. The inside of the apartment is well into the 80's and all good goes bad very quickly. Heat will not be on at times, yet stays on even during 70 degree weather. Common areas are also very dirty and smell bad. the building is also down the street from a school, so expect yelling children around 7:30am every morning.
    Advice to owner:
    Do proper maintenance and get it done with.
