Upper East Apartment

Pros

Good water pressure and instant hot water.

Cons

A lot of cockroaches throughout the building and property owner was MIA. Never responded to questions or service requests. Only contacted us for monthly payments.

Great First Apartment

Pros

This was a great first apartment - spacious for multiple roommates without feeling cramped. Great private outdoor space, and the building was very quiet.

Cons

The unit was extremely outdated and needed renovation. Also the pests were present given the ground floor nature.

Advice to the owners

Renovate the apartment and this would be a must have.
