a decent place to live!
Former Tenant
Pros:
i really loved the space in the apartment & the location was perfect for me (right by the halsey J)
Cons:
the property management company was horrible at responding. it took forever to actually get my name off the lease at the end of the term because they automatically renewed me even though i had been in constant communication with them about moving out at the end of the lease.
