    4.5/5 Anonymous on Jul 18, 2025

    Great building, exactly what you need. Great location. Reasonable rent. A little on the older side, but elevator, parking lot, and door PIN work great. When moving in, we noticed appliances needed some work, but so far maintenance has been responsive and helpful.

    4/5 Anonymous on Mar 27, 2024

    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.
