    Good complex
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Clean, warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Great location.
    Cons:
    Management doesn’t respond in a timely manner. The Super doesn’t answer calls. There was no notice about construction at 8 am in the morning every morning. When there was a dead animal in the walls, management did not do anything about it except for give us a scent absorption block (it didn’t work).
    Advice to owner:
    Do better with maintenance requests
