Good place to live but a lot to be desired
Former Tenant
Pros:
Landlord and super that live in the building are very responsive. Good place for families and close to b82 bus and walking distance to b/q train. Close to all stores.
Cons:
Issues with pest control and some tenants are super noisy packing out a one bedroom apartment and stomping on the floors all night. Issues with packages getting stolen.

I don’t recommend
Former Tenant
Pros:
This place felt cooler in the summer compared to other places I lived
Cons:
Lots of mice, roaches and centipede. Heaters are extremely loud and they will definitely wake you up at night. Also they overheat the apartment. Bad management of smoke detectors. One of them has been beeping for weeks without being replaced i could hear in inside my apartment. It was extremely annoying, because it was waking me up at night. Then the some detector disappeared for several month
