The entranceway to the apartment building is used as a toilet and dumpster by people passing by. I witnessed someone throwing trash inside the entranceway as they walked by. The smell as we crossed the threshold made both my girlfriend and I gag as we retreated to the sidewalk to get a breath of fresh air.
We gave it a second try and pour our way upstairs. The smell dissipated by about the third floor. We decided to go in and give the apartment a look. It was cleaner than the stairwell and smelled better, but after seeing stains all over the couch we decided not to stay. Beware.
