Decent place but consider what matters to you
Pros
Nice super who lives on site. Video intercom and double doors keeps the place safe - never had any issues. Laundry on site. Tiny elevator but it exists. Relatively quiet building. Trash goes in back of the building and large item removal. Near police and fire station if that matters to you. Exterminator comes regularly.
Cons
**2nd Year Update** Noise has gotten worse. Trash builds up. Elevator buttons are always broken. Energy rating is a F causing bills to be $200+ even when out of town and not using a/c. Really would not recommend if the building is going to keep going downhill.** Units are small for the price - definitely see before signing. Water pressure is good, but water is debatably clean. Not a modern building so extremely hot in the summer. Heat can’t be controlled in the winter. You can hear any and everything in the building hallways, but it’s relatively quiet in your apartment. No package room, all packages just sit in the lobby. If you aren’t there to buzz your package in, it likely won’t get delivered. No regular cleaning/maintenance of hallways - watched spills and trash be left around for weeks. Laundry is $4 a load, figure out if there are cheaper options you’re willing to use. Gas appliances if that matters to you. Appliances are not all updated - no stainless steel here.
Advice to the owners
Get the water/pipes checked. Brown water is genuinely concerning. Invest in cleaning of the hallways/stairwell/elevator at least once a month - people pay enough.
Cute but Overpriced
Pros
Overall a really quiet building, packages are never an issue, building is old but kept clean/unkept. Location is amazing.
Cons
Appliances are small but not scary small or out to date. Apartment itself is small for how much it is. If you only use hot water in the shower it comes out brown.
