Spacious rooms in a pretty nice location
Former Tenant
Pros:
Rooms are spacious and comfortable. AC works pretty well. It is relatively quiet. Also, it is a 10 minute walk to the 123, 45, but the walk is not so bad because there are a lot of things in the area.
Cons:
Getting things fixed is difficult. They could invest in another super because the current one seems overworked.
