Overall good experience
Former Tenant
Pros:
Doormen were present and helpful. Fairly quiet spot in the city.
Cons:
Some pests but they treated the building regularly. Management could be a bit slow to respond and did the bare minimum

Short and Sweet
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building tends to be quiet even though it is in a noisy neighborhood. Dogs are allowed (but not via the standard lease). Lovely coffee shop at ground level.
Cons:
The laundry room in the basement is in bad shape (low-quality machines, wet floors). Scaffolding for years and ropes from the roof.
