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.
