Living at The Taft has been a great experience. The building has a lot of character while still offering the comfort and convenience you want in an apartment. Everything is well maintained, and the common areas are always clean and inviting.
One of the biggest advantages is the location. Being right in downtown New Haven makes it easy to walk to restaurants, coffee shops, parks, and other local attractions. It's a great spot if you enjoy having everything nearby.
The management team has been... friendly and responsive whenever I've had questions, and the overall atmosphere in the building has been welcoming. I've really enjoyed living here and would recommend The Taft to anyone looking for a comfortable home in a convenient location.
