543 E 5th Street is infested with bedbugs. The management company knew of this issue when I moved in, but did not notify me. I usually don't bother to write reviews, but I feel like I should warn other people so they don't make the same costly mistake I did. I had to throw out thousands of dollars worth of new furniture and moved out within two months of moving in. Attempts to address this issue proved futile, as so many of the units are infested, they are impossible to fully eradicate. Additionally, I was there two months and did not receive necessary utilities. Not only is this company amoral, they are in direct violation of so many tenant legal rights and should be sued.
