You live in a city. Specifically you live in Hartford
May 13, 2024 - Reseña de Apartments.com
Put simply, there are many things to be aware of before you consider living here.
PROS:
-Apartments are nice with modern appliances. It’s unusual to have to be worried about repairs. The walls too are actually pretty thick, I’m assuming because it’s an older building and there’s probably more concrete.
-The location in downtown is nice/convenient, particularly if you work in the city. You’re within walking distance of places like Bushnell Park, XL Center, Dunkin’ Park, Pratt St. and some pretty ...
good bars and restaurants. While it is true most people leave downtown for a night out for more options, there are still some things close by. The train station too is convenient, especially if you’re looking to commute/take a trip to NYC (you can switch over trains in New Haven).
-For me, electricity/internet was the only extra utility paid. Heat and hot water are typically included.
CONS:
-It can get noisy outside on the weekends, particularly if you have windows facing the street. There’s The Russel on the ground floor of the building which will hold events occasionally, but 99 percent of the noise stems from the club on the other side of the building. The club itself sounds well insulated, but people and cars outside, mainly late at night, have become more of a problem since it opened. I do not recommend living below the fourth floor for the noise reasons.
-Security is something I’d be conscious of. There are two sets of doors to get into the building, but the second has been unlocked/unlatched for longest time as of this writing. Homeless people have wandered into the building on more than one occasion, particularly when it’s cold out. There are cameras in and around the lobby. I’ve been told management has been made aware of all these concerns, but, I’m not aware of any fixes yet.
-There’s no parking lot for the building. You need to pay to use one of the private lots nearby, which averages out to $100 or more extra per month depending on where you park.
It should be noted that management is friendly, but you do sometimes need to badger them to make sure stuff gets done.
Moreover, the apartments are priced well for what they offer. At the time of this writing, it is not easy to find a one bedroom at the same price point. But these are things to keep in mind.
