Are you tired of convenient parking? Do you long to pay up to $300 a month for water, sewage, and garbage? Do you thrive off the thrill of rent hikes and management losing your payments after they have cashed your checks, then threaten to evict you? Does the soothing melody of late night traffic, harmony of drunk people screaming, and car horns lull you to sleep? Do you just love to wake up to the sultry smell of raw fish (right next to pike place!)? I hope you like the super bowl because you will not sleep at all that whole weekend! There will be revelers up all night, parades through the streets and maybe even a marching band or two!
Maintenance comes when it pleases and is rarely particularly useful. Building maintenance often takes months to complete (or even just clean up!). The garbage chute is often blocked, so I hope you don't mind a long walk to the garbage on the bottom floor.
It's an older building and right by the bay, so expect mold (it's under the paint of course).
It's worth mentioning that there are no drawers in the kitchen.
Despite all these things, the worst part is the management. Read the contract carefully. She can use your rent money toward whatever she pleases, which means it might not be rent she uses it for, but that ridiculous w/s/g bill, so she can hit you with a late fee and a 3 day pay or vacate notice you won't know about until Friday night after the office is closed.
TL;DR: don't rent here.
