    Hilltop is the hillbottom
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Location, on-site laundry, elevator.
    Cons:
    Tiny possibly illegal apartments (such as a 1 br divided into a 2 br with temporary walls). Heat was inconsistent. Management was incredibly hard to get a hold of without threatening action. Too much money for the hassle.
    Advice to owner:
    Redo the whole building, or sell it to someone who actually cares about people.

    Bad landlord, but livable space
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    It’s in a good location for food, entertainment, the park, and transportation.
    Cons:
    Heat and hot water are spotty. The mice and roaches are not the best. The building manager is slow to respond and untrustworthy and rude
    . Save your your receipts around these people.
    Advice to owner:
    Grow a conscience.
