Reviews

Former tenant·8 months ago

Lots of potential but the building is cheap

Pros

Location is great, apartments are spacious, doormen are friendly and know each tenant

Cons

The craftsmanship is horrible... everything in the apartment was very shoddily done (uneven walls, cabinets not adhered properly, sinks and toilets not caulked properly, etc.). Very difficult to contact building management which seems purposeful (who still uses fax machines and doesn't have an email address in 2024?)

Advice to the owners

Hire better contractors

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Not too bad

Pros

Building staff (with the exception of John)

Cons

Will under no circumstance turn AC on prior to Memorial Day. Even if it is 90+ degrees, so can be unlivable conditions.

Advice to the owners

Be more responsive to tenants needs and requests.
