Actually un-liveable
Roaches. The units themselves aren’t bad and at an okay price but this building is absolutely infested. I do not cook or leave a speck of food out in fear of the amount of cockroaches I find in my spotless unit. I am even sleeping on my couch and friends couches since seeing one in my bed a week or so ago. Even hygiene Is suffering because every time I shower there is a good chance I will see a cockroach. Please save yourself the mental anguish and pay a little more to actually be able to use… your kitchen and sleep at night.
