Convenient and cute
Pros
Quick rental, quiet old building. The super is fairly responsive, but not as responsive as most standard buildings. Very tiny apartments at market rent.
Cons
There is now a small charge to process a rent payment. No hot water in shower for 3 weeks. Ceiling fell in bathroom; cleaned quickly.
Advice to the owners
Have the drains snaked regularly.
An old building needs more love
Pros
The street noise is minimal especially if your apartment is north facing. Neighbors are nice and polite. Dog friendly.
Cons
Super is awful with the garbage maintenance. Pests have strewn garbage all over the ground, I've seen rats, cockroaches, and especially in the summer, there are tons of huge flies all around the stairs.
Advice to the owners
Get a new, more competent super
