Get lucky in one of the back 3 units
March 3, 2024 - Review from Apartments.com
If you like privacy, for the price it’s hard to beat my little studio I had in back of the main building. It was small, but if you can deal with that, here are some pros:
there are no neighbors above or below, there’s only one shared wall off the closet to the neighbors balcony. I never even knew if they were home or if anyone was even living there at all at times. I could play music pretty loud and no one could hear (I tested to confirm).
Managers come and go in this building but the new one ...
Reína is very nice and responsive.
I had 2 heavvyyy front doors technically, my own private hallway where I could store my excess items. And I had 2 large balconies. Where you can see the observatory and it was perfect for keeping plants. However I didn’t feel they were private or comfortable to want to hang out on much.
My unit was close to the path of the outdoor exit, and also the trash area which was convenient but also had it cons.
The cons:
Jumping to the cons, on the down side, being close to the trash was pretty loud when the garbage was taken out, it was an adjustment to get used to. In the summer I could smell it with the windows open and it would bring dozens of flies into my place on occasion :!(
The balconies were so large but faced an active school so you’re not really trying to hang out there with your friends when everyone, young and old at the school walks by and can easily see you and the other side closely faces the main building. . Maybe you won’t mind but I did. I wish the space was better utilized towards a larger interior inside the apartment instead. At night there are bright spotlights that shine thru the curtains which also drove me nuts but could be fixed with better curtains.
Beware they have to fix the front intercom in the building and I don’t think they plan to. They just pretend it’s temp out of service. So that means things will rarely at all be delivered to your door. You’ll have to go and get it out front.
Overall I truly think my unit was a bit of a gem all things considering. A little dingy and small and dark but the pros are kind of hard to find.
