Don’t expect to get any sleep..
Former Tenant
Pros:
Pest control is great. Never seen a roach or rat in or outside building. Trash is taken care of daily
Cons:
NOISY. haven’t had a good nights sleep ever since I moved. Parties are frequent in the neighborhood (including the back yard of the building) and is right across the street from a mechanic shop so expect to hear motorcycles and car engines go off at 8am every day.
