Cons
Updated. This happens in summer: next to the building is a park, where everyday people are sleeping and pooping in the back of the tennis court, literally next to the building. About the apartment: the walls are not just thin, are like paperas and you can hear your neighbors fighting, watching movies or laughing, it is awful. You literally can listen every footsteps not just next to you but the apartment above. It have just two windows in the room, so there is not a lot of light and the circulation of air is slow, what makes the smells of food stay for a while in the aptm. On October, 2023, on the first floor there was a fire and no fire extinguishers present in the building, someone died and I don't really know the deal with the tenant who survived, but he was still living here and late at night he would wake up the building with his screaming. After the fire, they started construction at 7:30 and because the walls, you listen everything like it was in front of you. For sure a headache. Months after, in 2024 they started to construct during 4 weeks, without any permit in the second floor. Same deal, a lot of noise and I don't want to forget to mention how dusty the building is. We have to ask them to clean because they don't had anyone cleaning the building. About the building: they had a problem with roaches, and they informed us before we moved in and they said they had it "controlled" but we still have found some around the house. So, every month someone comes to check out the building. The hot water has a problem, and you never get really hot water on the tub, so forget baths even when you have a tub. Also this is a rental group, and the lack of communication is huge. For 6 months they haven't provide us with a number for an emergency but the super who doesn't speak English well. It is a great location but I honestly don't think it's worthy at all. You can't work or rest in this building. We wish we checked this app before to know all the evictions they had!
Advice to the owners
If you are not ready to rent, you shouldn't do it. And you should be more communicative about the construction, because the noise and the dust are a big issue here.
