    just don’t move here
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Really great location! No coach-roaches / bugs.
    Cons:
    unresponsive management, had a rat problem INSIDE the building that went on for a month, which then you could hear the rats in the walls and then you could smell them as they passed away. horrible smell in the hallway that then radiated into my room. management suggested it was my fault even though the smell came from the hallway. in the winter they never turned on the heat and it was constantly under 60 degrees in my apartment ( we got a thermometer to document). didn’t want to fix our issues or turn on the heat. i guess they were too busy letting rats inside the building.

    also didn’t have working mail for months and then they took off the mailboxes while doing construction so there was just no place for mail to go for like a month.

    TLDR: constant bad smells in hallways, mail issues, unresponsive management, heating issues, history of rats + city violations
    Advice to owner:
    listen to your tenants and take care of the building? maybe turn on the heat in the winter
