Reviews

Former tenant·5 months ago

great super, responsive management, but shady rental practices

Pros

Super and family are so kind! On the occasion that we found a couple of mice, maintenance responded very quickly and thoroughly.

Cons

our unit was turned over to us incredibly dirty. They also clearly were listing a 2 bed with a fully enclosed windowless living room as an illegal 3 bedroom multiple times. They also are purposely unclear about times/places when trash can be left out during move-out periods so as to charge tenants fines for improper disposal. They also raised the rent wildly high to essentially get us to pay to stay, but we called their bluff--the unit in an incredibly desirable neighborhood stayed on the market for almost a month even at a price $100 lower than what we'd been told the rent would be if we stayed.

Former tenant·5 months ago

A good 3 years

Pros

Location is awesome, apts are pretty big and the rent cant be beat

Cons

Management could be more responsive and the actual halls of the building and stairwells could use some better maintenance. Also, we had some mice problems (were able to fix, just not ideal)
