    Nice renovation in apartments, issues with water leakage
    Former Tenant
    Pros:
    The units have been nicely renovated with modern appliances, and have tall ceilings and hardwood floors.
    Cons:
    The heating/cooling system is old. We had water leak out of our ceiling multiple times.
