Reviews

Former tenant·Over 3 years ago

I don't recommended anyone to live in this building

Pros

It's close to the train station

Cons

Roaches and rats sometimes the water pressure is bad when the pump is open in the streets, they give too much heat that I have to use an air conditioner in the winter time. Roaches never want to leave my apt. The building is infested.
