Great location but that's basically it.
Pros
Fun area, virtual doorbell, good neighbors.
Cons
Dirty, raised rent prices an insane amount after covid, had mice problem.
Roach infestation throughout building
Pros
- Good location - Friendly neighbors/residents - Seems they’ve renovated recently (was not renovated when I lived there)
Cons
- Roach infestation - within 48hrs of move in, we saw signs of a massive roach infestation. Had to pay for our own exterminator in order to keep the apt roach free (as their exterminator didn’t seem to do much) & we lived on one of the top floors so our exterminator said it had to have been a building wide infestation in order to have an infestation this large on a high floor of a walk up - Homeless people would sleep on front stoop, top step almost every night and in the morning, since the door opened inward instead of outward, you would have to bang on the door to try and wake up the person so they would move and you could exit the building - Second “bedroom” was so small it could fit only a full or queen bed and nothing else except the smallest/narrowest night stand table - Ventilation in building was awful - another unit had smokers and somehow the smell of cigarette smoke would travel and our living room would reek of smoke
Advice to the owners
Have the exterminator regularly and throughly check/spray all units.
