Overall good apartment
Pros
Garbage is always taken care of
Cons
Management responsiveness is slow
Renovated sure, but management is an absolute nightmare
Pros
New finishes, stainless steel, shared roof that’s usable, the nicest garbage folks
Cons
I don’t like putting reviews but this was one of the most horrible rental experiences I’ve ever had. 1. Garbage was a disaster. It’s in a popular area so people always throw their trash into ours, on top of already not enough cans for the 8 units in the building. When it gets overfilled, rats become our neighbors. Great people who manage the trash tho, just bad mgmt who have refused any request to get larger or lockable trash. 2. Flooding. The basement will flood when it rains and they won’t do anything about it. There will be no sense of urgency from them when all your valuables are soaked in sewer water and the basement is deemed unsafe to enter due to mold conditions. 3. Maintenance requests take weeks to get responses from. Even when they have people come, they mess up the first time that they have to come back again. Inefficient. 4. There are wires hanging so low in the backyard that you might just be electrocuted by accident if you walk too close 5. Electricity bills are through the roof. I’ve compared with local friends and it just doesn’t make sense. 6. If you are facing the window, you better be a light sleeper. Whole Foods trucks go until 2am and start up at 5-6am. They are loud. Otherwise, neighbors are chill
