Review from the web

Although I am a new resident here, I've been treated quite well. The building is old and has a lot of quirks, and the elevators are quite retro and have some issues. However, there's a great sense of community here, and it's clear that the staff has been working hard to address the previous management's negligence regarding maintenance work and other challenges. In my opinion, if you're looking to live here, you should understand that you're living in a historical building, and there will be quirks that come with it. I recognized this right away, and I'm okay with it. Your mileage may vary.
