    Decent place for students

    Overall this is a very good place and you should definitely consider it if you're looking for something on the cheap side, but also not too worn down or in poor condition. I lived in a 1 bedroom apartment by myself as a graduate student for 10 months. I'll break it down in terms of the positives and negatives

    * Positives:
    - Very close to UB south campus (~7 min walk to Goodyear hall)
    - Close to a number of convenience stores and good restaurants (this is a big plus if you don't have a car)
    -
    Maintenance & admin staff are very friendly and do their job properly. Never had any technical problems.
    - Fridge & cooker were in very good shape (like new).
    - Place was very clean when I first moved in, and the area around the building is always kept sparkling clean.
    - Pest issues are taken seriously and dealt with promptly. I never had a problem in that area.
    - Snow on the entrance to the building is continuously shoveled and the pathways salted.

    *Negatives:
    - no curtains. Yup. You have to install your own curtains, which is not ideal if you're only moving to the place for a few months and have to pay a pretty tidy sum to install your own curtains on the 5 windows in the apartment.
    - drawers and closets in the kitchen were very old and started to take on a faded rusty color that makes the kitchen look depressing, but they work pretty well.
    - Air conditioning is through forced air, which doesn't do a very good job on extra cold days (and there are quite a lot of those in Buffalo). However, you can tough it out on those cold days and just put on an extra blanket.
    - High bills. That air conditioning system also tends to draw a lot of power, which means more money to toast those cold toes. You're looking at ~$50-70 in utilities (gas and electric, internet not included) in winter, which is a hefty sum indeed. - Temperature. The place tends to trap heat, which is good in winter, but miserable in summer. You can expect the place to be significantly hotter than outside in the summer. The heat doesn't bother me too much, so I got by just fine with a fan, but you might need an air conditioner if you can't stand the heat .
