Beautiful Apartment in a Great Location

Pros

Large apartment, crown molding, insane location, elevator. Super is amazing

Former tenant·2 months ago

Would not recommend

Pros

Good location, apartment was well priced until 2026 lease renewal when landlords raised rent by $1250

Cons

Neighbor steels packages and landlord has not done anything about it despite multiple reports with photo and video evidence, month without heat in winter of 2026 where temperatures dropped below 40 degrees in the apartment, more than 20 days without consistent hot water. Super is kind but slow to fulfill maintenance requests.
