Solid Experience, with some Caveats
Pros
No frills, has what you need for a reasonable price, gym, security, laundry, spacious floor plans, awesome location, reasonable rent with limited increases.
Cons
Poor sound insolation, floors are quite thin, can cause neighbor disputes. Nice appliances, but likely use cheap contractors as cabinetry /tiling came apart.
Advice to the owners
Get better contractors for flooring/cabinetry/appliance installation.
More roaches than your average building
Pros
Inexpensive rent and nice location
Cons
Roaches are common. Pest control just seems to reduce their numbers a little but was never able to really solve the problem. Also the walls are extremely thin so you can hear your neighbors rather clearly
Advice to the owners
Sort out the roaches. Maybe just discontinue use of the garbage chute? There always seemed to be roaches coming out of it.
