Awful management company, Bettina, lies, deceives & extremely unorganized
Former Tenant
Pros:
Decent price, but everything constantly breaks and doesn't work int he building and the management refuses to acknowledge or fix it.
Cons:
This building is in an excellent location, although the building itself isn't great. The management is extremely poor.
Advice to owner:
Be honest with your tenants, give them fair respect and decency and fix issues that occur instead of cheaping out.

Great location, cheap and it shows
Former Tenant
Pros:
- Great location
- Pretty affordable price
- Kitchen and bathroom is separate from the studio area
- Maintenance staff are very nice
Cons:
- Walls and ceilings are thin. Very thin. I grew too annoyed being able to hear every keystroke the upstairs neighbor hit on his keyboard. Every chair drag. Every step. It's like there isn't even a ceiling it's so loud.
- Tenants don't respect quiet time, all the neighbors on my floor would be blasting TV/music very loudly, even at late hours of the night. I can often hear the unit ACROSS THE HALL's TV playing INSIDE of my unit. And the neighbor beside me? Yeah paper thin walls.
- In the summer, there are always swarms of flies/flying bugs in front of the front door. They've tried eliminating them but they keep coming back
Advice to owner:
Take noise complaints seriously
