Good building and location, not responsible landlord
Former Tenant
Pros:
Heat is great, pretty quiet, very pets friendly, weekly cleaning community areas
Cons:
Garbage and cleaning outside of the building, stealing packages and plants from the porch, smoking neighbors inside of the building, landlord constantly was getting letters about not paying gaz and electricity. It was hard to get someone to fix things in apartment. I fixes all the floor myself, painted walls as well. I paid for it out of my pocket. After one year lease my rent got increased on almost 30%. Which was an insane increase. On my question why - management answered - “the market is hot now”. 🤷🏻♀️So, I couldn’t afford it anymore. I negotiated rent, but it still was to high for me, so I had to break a lease.
Advice to owner:
Take care of the bills on time!

Had bedbugs, come to find out - building is infested
Former Tenant
Pros:
Loved in unit laundry
Cons:
I had bedbugs and management would not treat it promptly. I called a bedbug specialist I know personally who helped me through this. I lived here in 2021, so I see by the other reviews that the bed bugs did not go away or really treated.
They gave me my deposit back but did not ever reimburse me for my treatment of bedbugs. Sam (Landlord) ended up blocking my number after leaving so many voicemails for payment.
