Would not recommend
1) Since it's an old hotel that's been converted, the individual units are not metered. So all the tenants split the total cost of the utility bill. Now, if I had known this, I would not have agreed to a lease. I know someone out there is saying, "you should have read your lease". First of all, I did and it was not clear in there. Second of all, I definitely believe they should have said so in the beginning and they did not. Think about it, they have to know that such a situation is unique and... not usual. So yes, legally, there's nothing I can do because "it's in the lease" but ethically I truly believe they should have said something. In the future, I will be having a lawyer read over any rental agreement. I never thought I'd have to say those words about renting an apartment.
When I moved in, the unit was filthy
It was supposed to be cleaned, it wasn't. They just said, "sorry" and that was it.
3) If you plug in things into the wall sockets, it trips the breaker all the time. The maintenance guy told me that the building was wired poorly. I have lost power in the middle of the night many times.
Very little hot water at all.
It might get warm, it never gets hot.
Very loud!
Apartments located next to bars/clubs
WiFi is spotty
You can call the number for technical support but
it doesn't fix the problem.
My murphy bed broke, leaving me without a bed until maintenance could get to me.
My apartment flooded due to a rain. Shorted out my computer.
It was horrible. Ruined a few books, some clothes and food as well.
After everything else I'd been through, I asked to be released from my lease, but they said "no".
Legally, they just have to be able to provide another unit for me, which they did.
Why would they not let you leave a place you're miserable living in? Money, I guess.
And I asked if they'd cover the deductible for my renter's insurance claim for the computer
and they did agree to that which I wanted to include in this review. I decided a few days ago not to take them up
on it though because I simply don't trust them anymore and just don't want to deal with them.
I want to keep my head down and survive til the end of May.
10) Other stuff
Bad furniture, bad smells, incredibly drafty windows that myself and my neighbor both have put clothes in the cracks and base of to try to block the cold air and bugs.
