Reviews

Former tenant·5 minutes ago

Woudn't live here ever again. Worst management company on earth

Pros

The space is by far the biggest pro to the building!

Cons

I mean i dont know where to even start. Rodents and roaches are a huge issue. I personally killed over 15 mice in my apartment in the time I lived here - with my roommates killing a handful of others. The owners simply do not give a SHIT about you. Additionally, we had black mold in all bathrooms that we tried to have them clean multiple times, with no response. And then on top of that, we were without hot water for over 7 full months in the DEAD of Winter. The management company didn't even care to answer our many calls and emails and we even reached out to 311 on multiple instances, with our building still refusing to help. The WORST part of all of this is I live in Apt 1A and paid 5250. They didn't raise our rent on us once while we live there (because 5250 was a huge stretch for what the apartment was actually worth given the issues). We opted NOT to renew our lease for a third year - they still hadn't raised our rent before we declined. I just went to look at street easy and they raised the rent to 6500. Absolutely sickening. DO NOT RENT THIS APARTMENT
