Don't... please don't.
Former Tenant
Pros:
Nothing to speak of. Nothing at all.
Cons:
Where to begin: This is what we refer to as a slumlord landlord, who will happily hike your rent 40% at their whim. When you're in the apartment, you feel like you're back in the Bible.. the book of exodus, plagues of Egypt part to be precise. Rats, mice, roaches, spiders (the latter are actually welcome as they hunt the roaches). The "pest control" the building offers monthly is a joke, by the way. It's a bandaid on a bullet hole.
The apartment has been frigid this year -- the heat is deafeningly loud - it sounds like a marching band broke into your bedroom at 3am, but there's no heat being produced (or perhaps the building is so poorly insulated?? hmm).
The building is broken into on a daily basis (there's only one door and I've found credit cards wedged into it and things to prop the door open) and packages are stolen en masse - if you still think this building is a great fit after reading what I wrote (perhaps you think rats are cute and cuddly), please do yourself a favor and send your packages elsewhere. Unless you enjoy treating thieves to free stuff as I did for months.
I also hope you don't receive any mail as the mailbox has been compromised for months now and anyone (in the public) can open your mailbox.. often times you'll find your health insurance billing or W2s strewn about the lobby.
Great neighborhood, though. Although, I might be a little bias there.

Fine for price
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rent was decent for the space you get
Cons:
Super was horrible and unresponsive- a new one just started. Bug problem. Managment is horrendous- doesn’t answer calls or respond and emails and when they do are INCREDIBLY rude
Advice to owner:
Respond to tenants- the only responsive person was the handyman. Fix the pest problem. Install working cameras in building
