Could be better, could be worse
Pros
The building itself is pretty well taken care of. Neighbors are all friendly and welcoming, and it's a pretty quiet building inside (not a lot of noise from neighbors) as well as outside, it's a quiet location on the corner of Underhill.
Cons
SMRC as a management company has been ok-- but they are not always the quickest to respond, and often their responses aren't super helpful. It takes a while for issues to be addressed, if they are addressed at all. We have had minimal issues with roaches, after some pest control we did ourselves, but one pretty bad mouse problem- which was addressed fairly quickly (about 1 week or so) by management. Our unit is on the ground floor and doesn't get a lot of light. In the winter, the heat is not very strong and it is often very cold.
No Management Presence
Pros
Nice old building, big rooms, high ceilings, wood floors. Simple and spacious. Good location.
Cons
No laundry, management is impossible to get in touch with. Very impersonal experience.
