Reviews

Former tenant·just now

Pretty decent building

Pros

Landlord is pretty available and responsive. Building is in the best location tbh, biggest upside.

Cons

Super is difficult tbh. Hard to get a hold of and unclear/rude. Packages get stolen very frequently. Ground floor is cold in winter.

Good Walls, Bad Floors, Worse Management

Pros

the location is excellent

Cons

The super is non-existent. Not even sure if there is one tbh. Rent was raised 6.7% after one year, after promising when I signed lease they would not jack the rent. After I expressed displeasure with the increase, they just stopped responding to emails at all. Don't believe a word they say, and if you plan on being here longer than a year, look elsewhere
