    My partner and I just moved into the building approximately three months ago, and our experience has been pleasantly surprising. Unlike most buildings, the housing manager responds quickly, and the corresponding maintenance is performed promptly. Furthermore, the location is safe, quiet, and full of history. On top of that, the apartment is spacious, giving my partner ample room to work from home without feeling smothered by their work station. For the price we pay to stay here, this could only be described as a hidden gem.

    I got what I pay for and I’m happy with my choice. My apartment might lack luxuries and certain amenities but the location makes up for it. I like the fixtures, the storage space and the high ceilings that help cool down the space. Kichen area is smaller than optimal but i moslty eat out so its not a problem for me. So far I haven’t had any maintenance issues so i can’t rate their efficciency at dealing with management tickets. Although, the asistant property manager seems to be readily available and always replies to my emails in 1-3 hrs. I recommend this apartments for young people withput family who don’t mind guving up some amenities in lieu of a great location at a reasonable price
