Space was small, but functional.
Cons:
Light fixtures are messed up and never fixed.
There is an ongoing leak in my apartment and I can’t use the bathroom anymore.
There was a rat in the lobby.
Package theft is guaranteed.
Management isn’t going to be helpful.
People leave the doors open.
I didn’t have a carbon monoxide or smoke detector when we moved in.

We are humans, not dollar signs you can neglect.

DO NOT RENT IN THIS BUILDING
Former Tenant
Pros:
Barely anything to say
Cons:
Major infestation with roaches and rats. I saw a few roaches when touring but was told they just fumigated so thats why they were there. Turns out they never even inspected the unit after the last tenant moved out. The day I moved in I found roaches EVERYWHERE. I found a dead rat. I was absolutely disgusted and management did not care until I demanded I be released from the lease. I had every right to be released as ownership violated multiple city codes and rented the unit under false pretenses.
Advice to owner:
Give a shit about your tenants and dont be such horrible callous human beings that only care about money
