  • Okay place to live

    September 17, 2015
    This building is okay. The bus stop is right across the street so that definitely a plus. The neighbors are friendly but all keep to themselves. This building provides a washer and a dryer on site. A downfall is that it's located literally right in front of a main street, which it can be a quite loud. There is only one parking space you are giving. To find a parking on the streets is quite tough as well. If you don't mind all those downfall then it's an okay place to live.
