O & M

Nice area, apartments, and staff! Really enjoying my time so far. The building is really conveniently set up with parking, mail room, and outdoor spaces and the area generally feels safe

I am in an O&M apartment and am impressed. The open spaces, clean environment, pet-friendly amenities, great community, and friendly staff created a fantastic experience. The location is perfect, close to public transport. I highly recommend this residence for anyone seeking comfort and convenience in a vibrant area.

The apartment manager didn't take a valid or acceptable action when the neighbourhoods are making so much noise. The resident above me is always making big noise after 10pm until 2am in the morning. My ceiling and windows are shaking while they're walking at the apartment, and they keep doing laundry after midnight. Sometimes when I work from home, their steps are much loader and seems they never care about other residents. I've tried to communicate with them and the apartment manager, and there... is what I got from them:

The apartment said this kind of noise is common because this is an apartment. And they could do nothing about it because they could not disallow the resident to walk at room. Then I emphasized, even if it's not about playing music or having party, the noise level should be controlled in specific range. I also said, making noise at daytime is totally fine, but after 10pm is not acceptable. And eventually they let me talk with that resident above on my own, and I did, then immediately I received a warning from the apartment manager that I'm not supposed to drop the note on that neighbour's door.

In addition, the apartment manger told me that apartment above me kept empty for about 100 days, which is reason it was always quiet before. However, I've moved here for over 1 year, it's over 365 days, but for the other ~265 days, it was always good until the new resident moved in. So, empty apartment for ~100 days obviously is not a valid reason.

Also, the apartment manager said maybe that resident is unaware of that his steps are so loud; and he didn't do that intentionally. Thus, the apartment manager asked me stay with the noise because of the unawareness. However, unawareness is never a reason a person can negatively impact others' life or hurt others' feeling. It's unfair to me.

Right now, all my emails to the apartment manager would be ignored and they never responded. As they said, they could do nothing about such problem. Thus, I have to stay with the noise. I would move at the end of this lease.

Therefore, I'm not saying you shouldn't move into this apartment. However, if you are planning to move in, get well prepared without help from the apartment manager when you get in trouble with your neighbourhood.

Good Luck! Read More
