Pros: The location is the best feature. Second best is the size of the apartment. The character of the decor is charming.
Cons: There are many updates needed: repairing broken-shutters that won't close, windows that have broken hinges, an oven that doesn't work, a toilet that leaks from the bottom and struggles to flush. If you value privacy, you can't use the master bedroom since the shutters won't close. Lastly, the street noise is significant in the front side of the apartment and prevents you from opening the windows at night if you want to sleep and without air conditioning it gets very hot.
Management specific cons: When it comes to communication, I messaged the broken things on our initial walk through, and again later that we couldn't bake the food we bought because the oven was broken and couldn't sleep in the master bedroom etc. The only response was, "You can still sleep in the apartment." Everything was completely ignored. I asked for a fan at check-in and was told we wouldn't need them-we did need them as we woke frequently due to heat.
If the issues were fixed, I would recommend this apartment, but as it stands, I would say keep looking.
