Decent apartment near trains
Pros
Actual apartment is quiet, spacious, good deal
Cons
It’s a walk up (but hey, exercise) Loud neighborhood—fireworks, bachata music; building needs a serious cleaning
Advice to the owners
Clean the building and add some heat.
Good for first apt with no other options
Pros
Location, felt safe, for the most part quiet
Cons
The dogs in the first floor apartment. They bark every time someone comes up to the apartment and it will smell like pee in the lobby. People will lodge the door open, and packages will get stolen
Advice to the owners
Get some kind of camera for the lobby, it’s not expensive at all and it would help a lot
