    The worst building ever
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Near the ocean
    Cons:
    Very noisy apartments, crazy neighbors, poor window quality, they get air through
    it was built for temporary housing so it remains the same
    Advice to owner:
    just rebuild the entire building
    Over 4 years ago
    Could Be Better
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Laundry in the building; 4 washers 3 dryers
    Packages are mostly safe and untouched
    Neighbors are friendly
    Organized garbage and recycling disposal area
    Dishwasher
    Trash shoot for after hours disposal
    Near the beach really nice to walk on the boardwalk
    Cons:
    Pest issues in apartment and building in general got worse overtime.
    Walls are thin can hear through the wall, noisy wood floors can hear neighbor in the next door apt and above apartment.
    Covid regulations were barely followed in the building ie no mask wearing of tenants or porters, cleanliness of building got worse overtime.

    Advice to owner:
    This building can be better managed and better taken care of.
