Reviews of 1289 St Johns Place

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

I can literally hear my neighbors alarm clock go off...

Pros

The building itself is pretty well maintained, although the trash and loose mail does get messy at times.

Cons

ITS SO LOUD. It’s clear the owners split the apartments and put a thin dry wall in between. It’s normal to hear people walk up and down the stairs but when the noise makes you think someone is walking in your apartment, that’s not okay. I can hear my neighbors alarm clock, noisy child, conversations, when they walk, turn on the water in their bathroom and even when they drop something! Super disruptive and my poor cat is always on edge. If you want peace and quiet (who doesn’t?!), then don’t rent here.

Advice to the owners

Please please please reinforce the walls in between apartments. It’s ridiculous.
