Chelsea Village

It’s an okay place to live. I enjoy that they keep the grounds up and my neighbors are respectful. I love my space and the size of the rooms. I’ve had a few instances, where I needed emergency maintenance they have came pretty quickly anywhere between 3 hours to a day. If it’s not an emergency probably like a week give or take. They are friendly, but sometimes it’s taken multiple reports things fixed. For example, I was without hot water for about three weeks in the winter and it took multiple… reports to identify the problem. The office staff is very nice, but communication can be poor at times. They will not answer phone calls, but they will email you back in a timely manner if is something more major. You’re likely to not get an email back if it’s not major though. So if it’s dire or a more immediate question, you will need to visit the office in person. I do not enjoy how the apartments are poorly insulated. If it’s cold or hot, you will feel it in the bedroom, because the air/heat has poor circulation. There is a noticeable temperature difference between the bedroom and living room, especially because the closet has virtually no insulation. You will most likely have to tape around the windows/doors or put a draft stopper under your doors. The apartment is renovated, but the caulk around the shower falls apart pretty quickly and the caulk at the bottom peels off. As well as, the paint in the shower bubbling up when it gets steamy. The cabinets also need to be retightened at times, because they get loose. They did put in new carpet, which was great, but overtime the floor gets squeaky. Read More
