Former tenant·just now

Bad management - great neighbors

Pros

Amazing neighbors, beautiful building, well maintained units with a lot of character and good natural light

Cons

Horrible management. Don’t turn on heat when cold out, not responsive, increases rent by 10% every year. Slimy management company that nickel and dimes you.
