Reviews

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Living here is like camping

Pros

The units are really unique and beautifully designed. All neighbors are incredibly kind and friendly. Appliances are mostly new and well designed. Location is great. Super is sweet and responsive.

Cons

The landlord is almost completely unresponsive to tenants' concerns. We have a major issue with the HVAC unit in our apartment that has been unresolved for at least 8 weeks, leaving us without AC or heat. Every single call to the management company has gone unanswered.

Advice to the owners

Call your tenants back! When we say the apartment is uninhabitable, take that seriously and fix the problem.

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Refused to fix HVAC system

Pros

The units are relatively modern (just over ten years old) and the floors are easy to clean.

Cons

We flagged that our HVAC system broke two months ago and the management company refused to take any steps to fix it.

Advice to the owners

Fix things in the unit.
