Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Pro - Convenient, hot water, electric fireplace
Negative - Front door did not seal properly. Cold air blew into condo. It was impossible to heat the unit.
Bay window was drafty, cold and was difficult to sleep on window side. Ice form on inside overnight.
Electric baseboard heat ran constantly, drying the air resulting in headaches and bloody noses.
Electric fireplace was plugged into extension cord that was plugged into 6-plug outlet. Could only be on for 15 minutes before cord got hot. This is a fire hazard.
Closet had bed linens, blankets, paper bags & decorations piled on floor and against hot water heater. Another fire hazard.
The 40" TV is a 32". Only way to turn on TV was via lights above bed and the switch was next to the kitchen. This is inconvenient. One globe on the light was hanging lose.
The bed is sagging on both sides. Management requests tenants to strip the bed so we discovered the stained mattress cover (2010 date) and the mattress (2010 too) is stained. This is disgusting. The pillows are stained. They were also hard as rocks. The bed skirt was ripped & hanging off one side. The sheets are worn out. They have little fuzz balls all over them.
The smoke detector was hanging off the ceiling.
The kitchen is dated. The fridge smelled. A piece was broken off on the inside the dishwasher.
The kitchen table had crumbs on it.
The brown shag rug and couch were dirty and stained.
There were chipped coffee mugs & bowls. One spoon was tarnished solid black.
