Reviews

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Very well run building. Landlord is very responsive

Pros

Big apartments. Very clean and well managed building.

Cons

No laundry in the apartment but coin-op in the basement

Advice to the owners

Install coinless laundry. Constantly going to the bank for quarters.

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Lovely but expensive

Pros

Full floor apartment in well maintained small building with great light in great location

Cons

Rent was increased aggressively with each lease renewal and we were eventually priced out within a couple of years. This was during a period where rents were decreasing across much of the city.

Advice to the owners

Don't increase rent beyond the level of inflation for good tenants.
