OK building – not the best

Pros

My room was inexpensive

Cons

Common area did not have a window. Electricity bills were quite high. Location is not really close to either the L or M trains. Garbage is typically pretty miskept and is outside. No laundry on-site, must go to a building across the street for laundry.
