Reviews

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Great place for the price

Pros

Clean building. No rodents. Roaches from time to time but pest control comes once a month

Cons

Neighbors upstairs sound like they’re coming through the ceiling sometimes. Apartment is old, bad air circulation.

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Don't move here, it is not worth it.

Pros

It is close to transportation.

Cons

Property owner only cares about money. Converts kitchen into a bedroom. Now you have the mini kitchen and living room combined. Will find any excuse to keep your security deposit. Does not have cameras on all floors so when your Victoria's Secret gets stolen. They will not reimburse you nor care about it.

Advice to the owners

Stop being money hungry and put heat in that cold building. Install cameras on EVERY floor. So that when tenants steal, they can get arrested.
