Great Apartment

Building is clean and lots of community events. Apartment is a good size for the price. The neighborhood is perfect since we are right near the MIT red line stop.

The maintenance and concierge staff are the BEST! They are Always kind, friendly, and helpful. The common areas could use some updates and I wish the coffee machine tasted better. I also wish there were snacks in the common areas.
