Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Good location for students + young professionals

Pros

Short distance to L train, target, and trader joes. Utility price is slightly better than average since they cover hot water.

Cons

Walls/ceilings are thin so you can hear what your upstairs neighbors are doing. The building also has a tiny roach infestation that gets pretty bad in the summer but there is a monthly exterimation service that usually does the trick.
