Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Unsanitary conditions and unresponsive management

Pros

The building is quiet most of the time. There is laundry

Cons

The management allows people to let their dogs poop in the shared courtyard. There are also feral cats living there. It’s a space that everyone uses and has to cross through to get to the laundry room and the ground is COVERED in dog poop most of the time. Even after documenting who was letting their dog poop outside, the management has done nothing and posted no signage. This is illegal and a public health violation.

Advice to the owners

Clean up the courtyard and make it sanitary.
