Reviews

Former tenant·36 minutes ago

Overall great place

Pros

Super is great and friendly

Cons

Heating can be consistent

Former tenant·10 minutes ago

Avoid living in this nightmare building

Pros

Accesible transportation, centric and beautiful area.

Cons

Rat-infested, management had an attitude, no heating, an old kitchen, the moldings were collapsing, so was the staircase to the actual building and the manager and his workers sexually harassed women. Not even mentioning the fact, that the real estate agent was rude and condescending.
