    Overall great experience!
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Building management and the super were very quick to respond and were always helpful! The units were clean and as-advertised.
    Cons:
    The only negative I have is that I could hear the neighbors above me (not a huge deal). We had a great experience living here!
    Update: after 2 years of living here the building changed to a new management company which is very unprofessional. They raised rent by nearly 50% and said they were open to negotiate but would not even come down $100. Further, the landlords required me to vacate the unit for 5 hours weekly for almost a month to show the unit, which they could not find a tenant for due to the high price. The building used to be great and appreciated friendly tenants but I would not want to live under the new management.
