Reviews

Former tenant·1 hour ago

eh it's fine but also

Pros

good amount of space, roof rights, weirdly free of pest i haven't seen a single roach or anything

Cons

heat was out like half the winter and they could not figure it out for the life of them. air conditioning in the living room is still out. the wiring for electric is done wrong but that's supposed to be fixed soon at least..... electric bills were insane for so long

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

A fine starter apartment

Pros

Management is responsive to maintenance requests and the natural light in the bedrooms is great

Cons

The living room does not have windows, the windows in the bedrooms are so thin that just normal speaking voices on the street can be heard from the third floor

Advice to the owners

Provide thicker windows
