    Just lived there for a year
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Good area, near a supermarket but was lowkey expensive, everything was perfect condition
    Cons:
    had no problems with it besides the smoke detector going off every other day and no one coming to fix it (even though they said they would, but no one ever came since the ceiling was too high for us to reach)
