Reviews

Former tenant·6 months ago

It's okay if you don't live in the front first floor units

Pros

There's on-site laundry, roof access, minisplit A/C in-unit, easy access to the Q, there's an on-site gym.

Cons

The gym smells terrible, I don't think it gets sanitized. The dryers take forever to dry, and the washing machines can't handle medium size loads. The management can take a long time to respond to support requests, if you live on the first floor be prepared to hate it. During the summer the residents from neighboring buildings will set up speakers on the street and play loud music until 2a - 3a. Living in the front first floor units is noisy, the front door can slam, if the fire panel is broken it will beep for days.

Advice to the owners

Sanitize the gym and get better washers and dryers.

Beautiful Neighborhood and Tenants

Pros

Beautiful Neighborhood and Tenants. Great amenities. Very few issues

Cons

Management is slow to response or does not always respond back in a timely manner for emergencies.

Advice to the owners

Check in with your after-hours company. They do not always follow-through. Called about a strong gas odor in building and nobody ever called back.
