TLDR If you rely on public transportation, want in-unit laundry, do not care about local activities, are fine with overpriced, poorly maintained amenities, and have no other options, this place is fine. But if you can move somewhere else with better quality for the price, you should.
The apartment is not worth the cost. The building is in an underdeveloped area surrounded by abandoned lots that have remained untouched for years. These lots are fenced off and often littered with trash. The... surrounding area can feel unsafe, especially at night.
Building management is primarily responsive when it comes to leasing and payments. Amenities, which require an additional monthly fee, are often partially broken or unavailable. One of the two elevators is frequently out of service. Packages are sometimes left in unsecured areas instead of the designated package room. Maintenance requests are often marked as completed without fully resolving the issue, and repairs sometimes feel like temporary fixes rather than long-term solutions. Interior finishes are low quality, with walls that scuff easily, cabinet hinges that loosen over time, and unreliable internet service. The floors creak loudly, and the lack of proper insulation results in high electric bills during extreme weather months.
The best aspect of this location is access to public transportation. Broad Street station is about an eleven-minute walk, though the route passes through industrial areas that feel unsafe at night. Norfolk Street light rail is about five minutes away, but crossing a busy street without a crosswalk can be difficult during peak hours. Parking is extremely limited, and street cleaning rules are strictly enforced, leading to frequent towing.
If you have no other options, this apartment is manageable. But if you can find a better value elsewhere, it is worth considering other places before committing here.
