Got Robbed and Management Blamed Us
Former Tenant
Pros:
The neighbors are nice. All college-aged kids. The color of the cabinets were pretty.
Cons:
Title says so much but there's so much more. The area is pretty sketchy. The virtual doorman doesn't work so the super gives out the master code to everyone. This means people will sneak in and steal the packages. I once watched a man walk in the building with an empty backpack and walk out with a full backpack ten minutes later. I checked and all of the packages were shredded open. The trash room is disgusting. There are cockroaches everywhere because there is no proper garbage disposal. The laundry room is a joke. There isn't even a way to fill your card with money to use them in the first place. But even if there was, I would never use the laundry machines because of how dirty and outdated they were. There are "3" bedrooms but only one of them has a dark window that has pretty much zero light. The bathrooms constantly leak and I've seen at least 5 spiders. One of my roommates had water leaking from her ceiling for three days before the super bothered to show up. The courtyard is nothing like it was pictured online. It is instead used as a trash room by all the residents. There are constantly college parties there. Now, for the grand finale. My roommates and I were robbed twice and assaulted once in this building. Both times, the robber entered via the front door in the middle of the night. We lost $2,000 worth of items. After lying to us that they had not distributed the master codes to the virtual doorman, management preceded to tell us they had also lied about having a functioning security camera in the lobby. We were three (not even 20) young girls. This was our first apartment ever. Our parents were scared to death. I think it's very clear that I recommend that you do not live here.
