Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Great early career apartment

Pros

New management came in and have been very responsive

Cons

Dryer in basement often took 2-3 runs to fully dry clothes

Former tenant·4 months ago

Not worth it for the money

Pros

Location in Chelsea was nice

Cons

Heating pipes were extremely loud at night, sounded like a construction site. So many cockroaches and rats - I could hear them crawling in the walls at night, was definitely an infestation. Property owner kept a decent chunk of security deposit due to normal wear and tear.
