Reviews

good neighborhood bad pest control

Pros

generally quiet building, good neighbors, shared spaces are kept clean

Cons

Roaches rats and pigeons. I suspect my apartment had bedbugs before I moved it and management didn't tell me. Laundry machines are constantly broken and not repaired for 6+ months. Old plumbing causing frequent leaks and floods.

Advice to the owners

Repair the plumbing and take action to get rid of the rats and roaches in this building. SEAL the apartments.

It’s a great building

Pros

The building is always clean. Garbage is always picked up early on every floor. The floors in the hallway are usually mopped every so often which is great!

Cons

There should be more frequent times when the exterminator comes.
