“Unit 5F Pros: Fair rent, washer, and dryer in the building, building manager and super are very nice and quick to help with every need, fixed fair price for electricity Cons: the building is super old and it shows the stairs are crooked, and the floor is crooked too. cockroaches are a thing, shower drain is not the best. not allowed on the roof. Advice to landlord: more pest repellant, and change carpet on stairs. Other than that all the other problems can be realistically solved.”

No one really bothers us Cons: Washer and dryer not included - it’s been broken for years and landlord has not fixed. Many cracks in the walls where the bugs crawl into once we turn the lights on. Windows are broken so I just stuff blankets to cover up the spaces during the winter. I’d recommend a personal heater. Strong fishy smell from the restaurant below sticks around during the summer, you get used to it.”
