Cons:
Application process was cumbersome/expensive Move in fees, move out fees, very weird rules on when/how to move out furniture, outdated website for reservations (move out elevators + amenities like basketball court) Trash room on each floor is too small for recycling Elevators can be a bit slow during AM rush
