Building is not fully ready.
April 29, 2025 - Reseña de Apartments.com
The only reason this got two stars and not one is because Lily, the property manager, and Martin, the maintenance guy, are very attentive and respond quickly. This review is mostly concerning the building in general.
The apartments, from what I can tell, are not fully renovated. The pictures online by no means match every apartment in the building. Mine in particular has no barn door, proper flooring, and everything in here is egregiously old. The price for the location might make it appealing ...
but you pay for what you get. Zero amenities, old base boards, very old kitchen equipment/cabinets/shelves, no light fixtures except in bathroom and kitchen, and bathroom furniture is old and ugly (stains from its age). Although the spaces are bigger than average apartments in the city, the allocation is very poor. My apartment in particular barely fits my queen bed, and the kitchen and bathroom is much too small. You're essentially paying for a huge open living room in my case.
Besides aesthetics, the heating unit is not up to 2025 standards. It takes much too long for the heater to do anything and it is concentrated on the one wall that it runs along. The apartments not having AC has proven to be a much bigger problem than I anticipated. If the temperature goes up to even 55 degrees and you have the big windows be ready for your apartment to be at least 75 degrees inside. The room being a cubicle with poor air circulation gets even harder than the living room. On top of that if you request an AC unit they charge you monthly to use it (even though you have to pay the electricity bill so really you're paying twice a month) and it is not big or powerful enough to make a meaningful difference in the summer.
If you skipped my long review, here is the conclusion. The building is not fully renovated and the company, since it owns many buildings in the city, should have allowed peoples leases to run out and FULLY renovated all the empty apartments before leasing them to new tenants. If you are not huge on the little things like modern looking finishes and up to date appliances and want a good location for a decent price then the place is good for you. However, I think the price point is still a bit too high with all things considered and I hope you are ready for sweaty nights in the summer.
