Reviews

Former tenant·10 months ago

A hassle you'd rather avoid!!!

Pros

It is a beautiful building that has been recently renovated with new appliances, and the neighborhood is very diverse.

Cons

The management is horrible! They consistently fail to respond to calls, emails, or requests submitted to them. When issues arise, such as maintenance problems within the apartment, tenants may wait an unacceptable 8 months to a year for resolution. Moreover, the building's cleanliness is often neglected, resulting in unpleasant odors reminiscent of a dumpster and a pervasive presence of roaches throughout the premises
