    Great location, mediocre building
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    You cannot find a quieter street in the Village, it is so nice
    Cons:
    The building is very dirty and everything in the apartment is the bare minimum, breakers trip if you turn on the stove and a kettle or the stove and the microwave or anything else. The paint job is lazy and horrible (the toilet is painted over and etc)
