While some appreciate the spacious units and accessible location, concerns revolve around maintenance issues like water leaks, pests, and slow responsiveness from management. Inconsistencies in communication, noisy neighbors, and problematic building infrastructure also detract from the overall experience.

Should be Demolished!

Pros:
Nothing really. I guess the location was okay. But the illegal cellar rooms make it difficult to enjoy anything.
Cons:
Filthy, cheap, not worth the going rent price
