“Unit A9 Pros: This building is close to the train and there are a lot of food stores in the area. It is also nice to have a live in super (even if he’s unavailable 70% of the time). Cons: There is no way to contact building management at all. The is a live in super, but he is very negligent and is often unavailable. It took him nearly 2 weeks to fix a leak in my bathroom that resulted in a hole in my ceiling. The 2 numbers the super gave to tenants don’t work as they are always blocked for some reason. He’s also started taking packages in order to “stop them from being stolen,” but his phone is never working so you can’t get in contact with him to retrieve you stuff. You just have to hope you catch him in the hallway some day. This building is rodent and roach infested! I had a bad mice problem when I first moved in. There are also german cockroaches everywhere. Advice to landlord: Hire someone who will actually tend to the building and be available for tenants.”
