Good place to live

Pros

Nice area, apartment is nicely sized and has a good layout.

Cons

The AC unit went out, and it took a while to fix. There is no safety with packages.

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

Spacious apts, but building is a bit dirty

Pros

-Issues like lights being out in the hallways or smoke detectors beeping are addressed immediately. -Super lives in one of the buildings and can come up to check something out immediately. He's usually nice... but see note in "cons."

Cons

-Dryers were out for probably around a year and there is always at least one washer out of commission. -Cockroaches are an issue. -Garbage management leaves a lot to be desired. And there is no composting. -Super can be a bit passive aggressive.

Advice to the owners

Step it up. Rents continue to increase, but quality of building isn't as buttoned up as it should be. Especially for what we're paying.
