Worst Apartment Experience - A Warning
Former Tenant
Pros:
-live-in super
-washer/dryer in unit
Cons:
-shoddy renovation work
-outrageously expensive brokers fee & rent
-loud neighbors partying every weekend
-restricted rooftop access
-flimsy doors & windows
-defective radiators (banging, spewing steam and making it far too hot)
-virtual door entry system malfunctioning most of the time
-no ventilation (minimal airflow due to mostly inside-facing windows)
-bedrooms are not equal in size
-not enough natural light
-extremely tiny, poorly placed bathroom
-lazy, unresponsive building management
-unstable, belligerent tenant in unit #9
Advice to owner:
Evict the tenant in #9!!! They have allowed him to harass neighbors to the point of having to move out because they refused to dole out any consequences for such actions which were tantamount to criminal harassment.

Loudest apartment ever
Former Tenant
Pros:
I never had to worry about bugs or rodents
Cons:
The windows are the absolute thinnest windows on earth. I lived on the 3rd floor facing the back garden and if they played music even quietly I could hear everything. However, the people living on the ground floor threw parties every single weekend I was there. There was nothing that the management said they could really do. I didn’t sleep on Fridays or saturdays until 3 am because of this issue. Do NOT live facing the garden in this building!!!!! Another issue I had in this building is that before my lease was up, I had moved most of my furniture out a week early and when I went back to the apartment (still had the keys for another week) it had already been completely cleaned out. I lost so many things that I had planned on grabbing when I dropped off the keys. I will never understand why my apartment was stripped clean before my lease was up.
Advice to owner:
Stop renting out the ground units to frat boys. Install thicker windows.

pretty okay spot
Former Tenant
Pros:
apartments are finished well, buildings are kept clean, good spot for college students or people in their early 20s
Cons:
the heat in the winter is excessive and you have no control, at one point it was like 90 degrees in the apartment and we couldn’t even stay in there cause we were sweating. also the super is somewhat unresponsive
