The perfect small apartment
Pros
I lived here for 3 years. The location could not be better, and the apartments have character. The building is very well maintained, and management is quick to respond to requests. They did not increase my rent too much when I went to renew each year.
Cons
Generally, all of the apartments are just SO small. I lived in 2 units during my time in the building. The floors are crooked and there are many “quirks” that come with the fact that it’s old and unrenovated. Sometimes the building maintenance people are not very thorough.
Advice to the owners
Do some renovations to the bathroom and kitchen but keep the charm
Good Building
Pros
It’s safe and in a good neighborhood. The neighbors are nice. The apartment is nice.
Cons
The key fob entry breaks often. The rent is really high for the space I have.
Advice to the owners
Lower rent and think about having a back up key entry into the building for when the fob breaks.
