A charming neighborhood, but the apartment had its drawbacks
November 20, 2024 - Reseña de Apartments.com
Overall we liked living here. The staff were always very kind and quick to respond. It’s a very charming neighborhood too.
Our main complaints were the mold and roaches. We had a consistent mold smell and Microbial growth was on many of our things. It ruined some of our things. Even with a dehumidifier, the problem seemed to persist. We also had roaches early on while we were at South Front. I was pretty anal about getting rid of them and we were able to resolve that with consistent spraying ...
and packaging our food up.
The apartment always felt kind of dirty even after we cleaned it a lot, but I assume that comes with the territory with older apartments, that used to be the projects. The exposed brick walls were always rubbing off and dirty. The bathroom counters and tub were kind of stained.
Like some of the other comments have mentioned, the trains were loud at night, but we kind of got used to them over time. One couple that lived beside us always smoked a lot and the smell would leak through to our apartment and it would smell super strong! We could usually hear their arguments as well.
We also had an issue with how dark it always was in there. It kind of felt like a cave sometimes. There were no lights except in the kitchen and bathrooms.
Overall we enjoyed living here and would recommend South Front to someone wanting to live in a charming neighborhood close to downtown. We loved how dog friendly it was too. I think the apartment has to be for the right person though, it had its drawbacks. For context, we lived in Phase 1 in the brick apartments.
