    Average Apartment Great Location
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Where this apartment is is amazing, and all of the essentials are there so no complaints there
    Cons:
    May be “recently renovated” but seems like a DIY or pretty poor renovation job. Wobbly sinks and crooked floors with plenty of gaps in the floorboards and weird details you notice. Also have had notable security issues, with some shady people getting into the laundry room/sleeping in the stairwell

    So-so over the years
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    Love my neighbors. Love the interior of my place, it was completely overhauled when I moved in and it’s beautiful. Its a pre-war building which I like but the interior of my apt is clean, simple sophisticated design choices and design—more modern. Beautiful floors, paint color, fixtures.
    Cons:
    Owners are not easy to reach if there’s a problem. The laundry hasn’t consistently worked since late 2020. The one dryer was broken for 8 months and they finally replaced it with something so cheap that you have to run it twice to dry completely. 1 of 2 washers has been broken for months. Some small roaches in my apt that exterminator can’t seem to fix. FREQUENT water leaks in various apartments. I had a few bad ones early on but luckily haven’t had one in a while but many others have. As of fall of 2021, the heat hasn’t worked at all yet. They’ve been saying they’d fix it for a few weeks and it’s now November
    Advice to owner:
    Fix the laundry room properly. Fix the heat.
