Quaint but not without issues

The apartment is fine. It's cute and clean, and priced affordably. The location is great; it is next to a nature trail and about a mile away from Geer Street and the Duke East campus. The landlord is responsive and laid back. It is relatively spacious, although lacking closet space. However, there are some significant issues with insulation and humidity that make the apartment borderline uninhabitable in the winter. It is also next to a creek, meaning that the yard is often very wet (and I suspect where much of the inside humidity comes from).
