    Top floor Studio apartment in a major city in an old building.

    • The units didn’t have individual thermostats so we were stuck with what the building set, but heat rises.
    • it was sweltering in the winter but when I opened the window, everything got coated in sticky black tar from the oil burning furnace
    • it was sweltering in the summer but electrical was inadequate for even the smallest window air conditioner
    • maintenance arbitrarily entered my apartment and smoked, leaving cigarette butts in the toilet.
    • when my lease was ending, sales would just walk right in with new prospective tenants with no notice and not even knocking, regardless of the law
