    Friendly staff only positive

    There are bugs all over the buildings, and the buildings are not maintained or cleaned at all. One of the hallway walls has a giant bug thats been sitting there, dead, for months. Many of these bugs will find there way into your apartment.

    They inspect the alarms many times a year, takes 8 hours and is extremely loud the whole time.

    Elevators are broken constantly, and they take months to repair. If you park or live on a high floor, grocery shopping or doing anything involving heavy things
    … will be a nightmare. The garage and building elevators have been broken since November, and its mid January.

    The in-unit dish washer, clothes washer, and dryer are not very good at all. Especially the dish washer, so you will have to do most dishes by hand.

    The AC is terrible, it barely cools down the room. It works more like a cheap fan. And if it gets broken it can take months to fix (2 months for us)

    Also when moving in, the apartment was not clean. There was garbage behind the bed, in the sofa cushions, and dust everywhere.

    The mail system is just atrocious. Nothing is ever sorted where it should be. So you need to scour the hundreds of packages in the mail room to find yours. And they delay putting the package in the mailroom, so your package is delivered but you wont be able to collect it for days.

    The garage is often partially flooded whenever there is rain. No elevator so you have to walk through the puddle or climb the very filthy stairs.
