Beautiful modern building
Former Tenant
Pros:
The building’s ambiance is very modern and minimalistic. The apartments are beautiful and photogenic. Lots of natural light in the apartments as well!
Cons:
The building management is not very responsive when things need to be fixed. High tenant turnover rate and the quality of materials used in the apartments is poor.
Advice to owner:
Listen to tenants and maintain upkeep of the building aside from the weekly cleaning!
