I once lived in a tiny two bedroom apartment with 3 other guys for a couple years. 3 of us slept in one room and George got his own room because he snored like a chainsaw.

Not once, not twice, but 3 times we had pipes explode in the ceiling, flooding the apartment. It was upstairs, and once our stairs fell off. It was directly on a 6 lane major road and was super loud all the time. One a truck drove through our downstairs neighbors house.

I almost died once too because there were swarms of bees constantly and they decided I was a threat. I got stung like 30 times that day, many around my eyes and face. This might not be the apartment's fault but there were a SHIT TON of angry bees every summer.

Also we paid the rent by passing it through a slot in an unmarked door above an abandoned Chinese restaurant.
