Decent and Affordable
Pros
Responsive management, built-in bluetooth speakers in common space, low noise levels, located near lots of shops and restaurants.
Cons
Unclean stairwell, minor mouse and cockroach problems, very little natural light, showers need re-grouting, far from public transportation.
subpar management and deposit theft
Pros
dishwasher that works, ac that sometimes does
Cons
landlords never addressed repeated pest complaints, heating broke in the winter, management communicated that there was no damage to the apartment that would warrant the deposit being withheld then immediately sent an itemized bill claiming damage to the unit and refused to return deposit.
Advice to the owners
respond to pest complaints, don’t send emails about rent and deposits that are set to disappear after a certain amount of time, and return deposits when you say you will.
