Not the worst, far from great.
Former Tenant
Pros:
- management is quick to make repairs (only the ones they see fit)
Cons:
- ceiling was leaky and produced a ton of mold in our closet and bathroom
- the front doorknob is constantly breaking
- there is a bad roach infestation
- there is a mail thief living in the building and the managers refuse to install cameras or do anything to deal with this, basically told us to deal with it
Advice to owner:
listen to your tenants
