past tenant review
Pros
Building is very quiet. Bedrooms are very spacious and the dishwashers work extremely well. There is also a lot of storage space.
Cons
There are roaches and mice! If you leave food or dishes out overnight you can find roaches in your sink. When you leave on vacation/the apartment is quiet and empty for a while, the mice will come out and you may spot one when you come back. Building management has been responsive to repairs, but not about pests.
Greedy Landlord, Little Care for Tenants
Pros
Most of the tenants are kind, pleasant and quiet. The building location is nicely situated.
Cons
Upstairs neighbors that shout, drop things, have running children, fight, cause leaks. Bug infestations (roaches, waterbugs, plaster beetles) and no care to solving the issues. Leaks are responded to by painting over the damage. The front door was left broken and unlocked for months. Garbage in the back is left improperly handed, rats getting at it daily. Hallways unmaintained, dirty and trashed. Issues to management take weeks, if not months for any kind of response and handling -- usually at the barest level of resolution.
Advice to the owners
Be an active, positive force for your building. Maintain it, repair damage proactively and in a timely manner. Handle bad tenants.
