Wow, reading all of this makes me feel really good about my apartment. It is most definitely not a dump. Biggest complaint is that the previous tenant did something of a hack job installing the air conditioner she sold to us, and we're going to have to reinstall it properly to get rid of the draft.
My previous apartment, now that was a hole. It was a converted attic, and all of the ceilings were sloped. I hit my head in the shower. And the wiring sucked, so I couldn't run the AC and the TV at same time. It made watching movies in the summer a bit of an exercise. The kitchen was tiny, the fridge never seemed to work right, and my downstairs neighbour had a pair of dogs that barked all bloody day and night.
I'm much happier now.
