Awful apt 3E
Former Tenant
Pros:
Location, location and just the location
Cons:
Everytime you cook the fire alarm goes on because there is no ventilation in the bathroom and kitchen which caused cockroaches getting in the apartment through the ventilation system and also mold in the bathroom (you can see it in the roof). The AC had mold and it took almost two months to get it replaced. The bedroom on the left get ridiculously hot because the new AC is not working and the insulation was not installed properly. Both ACs are not cooling and the landlord will always look for the cheapest solution. The bathroom also has mold and the paint is flaky, the landlord refused to do any repairs while the lease was active even tho my roommate and I had no issues with repairs being done. One month before leaving she started showing the apartment, on our “lease agreement” not contract, she included a clause that allows her to visit and show the apartment anytime she wants and in one of those days she broke the faucet lever, keeping us +3 weeks without water. To use light on the left room you must use an extension, you also need extensions on the right room because the main plug only works if the lights are on
Advice to owner:
Keep an eye on apartment 3E because it violates several housing rules.
