Reviews

Former tenant·7 months ago

Not terrible, not amazing.

Pros

Generally well maintained but not at all fancy and sometimes a bit dirty, generally responsive but occasionally difficult to communicate with. Some units in desperate need of upgrades to kitchen and bathroom.

Cons

Building security never great; outside garbages poorly maintained, lobby very rarely cleaned, invited theft of packages, etc.

Advice to the owners

General upkeep, responsiveness, and pride in building could be greatly improved.

Former tenant·2 months ago

Decent building to live

Pros

Condo building so lots of owners in the building, meaning any problems that arise don't last too long.

Cons

By the highway so lots of noise and dust. Occasional pests but management is pretty proactive. Hallways could use a moping
