    Dirty and loud
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Always have heat. Good people living here.
    Cons:
    The building doesn’t get cleaned. Trash on the floors, not mopped regularly.
    Back door to the garbage is left open and lots of rats.
    The lobby smells and there are flys inside during summer months.
    Advice to owner:
    Get someone to mop and take care of rats
