Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Apartment was in bad condition

Pros

The building itself was mostly fine. Neighbors were a little noisy but overall it was good.

Cons

The landlord, who from my understanding owns most of the building, did not put any effort into upkeeping the units within the building.

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Bill Lika is bad at his job.

Pros

Nobody really bothers you here, and you can pretty much do whatever you want.

Cons

I've never seen a floor swept or a the backyard cleaned in the 2 years I've been living here.

Advice to the owners

You should really hire somebody to assist you with day-to-day repairs. It's extremely annoying that you, yourself, must come inspect my leaking ceiling or broken sink because it takes you a minimum of two weeks to show up for anything (After repetitive calls and texts).
