Pretty adequate situation going on
Pros
Maintenance is pretty quick to respond (if you pester them) You can pay rent through an app—just be sure to use your bank and not a card to pay or the inconvenience fees are steep (upwards of $70) Pet friendly! Access code to building and access code to apartment — no forgetting your keys. Laundry machines in building (paid via app)
Cons
The stairway isn’t clean and often smells Two bedrooms have great light but the third doesn’t and there is no window in the living room/kitchen area Tried to stack fees onto us but proved they had no grounds to do so. Wouldn’t be surprised if they tried to do it again Pessy is VERY difficult to communicate with. She is rude to everyone, and argumentative. Keep a record of all interactions with this woman as you will often need to prove yourself. While maintenance is quick, jobs often need repeating. The washer and dryer were broken for months before we finally got them replaced. Heat is uneven across the apartment. The windows condense and mold.
Advice to the owners
Discuss treatment of tenants with Pessy.
Decent apartment building.
Pros
I really like my bedroom a lot, which is why I’ve stayed here for awhile. However, management is not the friendliest and it always smells mildewy in the building.
Cons
Management does not seem to care about tenants needs. Living rooms do not have any windows which is pretty awful. Management were not at all understanding nor empathetic during the height of covid with rent. I was one roommate short and had to pay the rent in full.
Advice to the owners
They should listen and care about tenants more and maintain the building better. Laundry is expensive.
