While many residents appreciate the cleanliness and location, concerns about management responsiveness and pest issues are prevalent. The owner generally receives praise for the maintenance and cleanliness, but multiple reviews highlight a lack of effective communication and slow response times, particularly regarding urgent maintenance needs.

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.
