While the location is praised, concerns revolve around subpar renovations, security issues, unresponsive landlords, noisy heaters, moldy showers, and maintenance delays. Positive aspects include good neighbors, clean interiors, and a modern design.

Average Apartment Great Location
Former Tenant
Pros:
Where this apartment is is amazing, and all of the essentials are there so no complaints there
Cons:
May be “recently renovated” but seems like a DIY or pretty poor renovation job. Wobbly sinks and crooked floors with plenty of gaps in the floorboards and weird details you notice. Also have had notable security issues, with some shady people getting into the laundry room/sleeping in the stairwell
