The Vintage

I have lived in my current unit for 6 months now and it’s the worst decision I’ve ever made. The Vintage is advertised as “luxury” building however, it’s anything but that. There building is crawling with roaches and management will pretend that it’s something new though everyone in the building knows otherwise. I’ve caught a few COMING INTO MY APARTMENT!!

There are constant foul smells, including the entrance (sewage), on every floor (especially the first, which smells like a mix of sewage and lingering cigarettes), and the elevator (urine as well as sweat/ musk). Additionally, some people get into domestic disputes - there are officers in the building on a weekly basis. Other tenants play music quite loudly which will echo in the entrance alley and the smell of marijuana is signature scent of The Vintage. Appliances need constant fixing because everything is sensitive. Though each unit has a water heater, you won’t be able to take a shower for longer than 10 minutes before it gets really cold.
