terrible. i have lived here for 3 years now and this place is absolutely AWFUL. first of all, i would just like to say that every apartment here is roach infested. when i first moved here, there were roaches everywhere. when i mean everywhere, i literally mean in every little crevice you could think of. over the past 3 years, i’ve seen quite a bit of them. i am a clean freak & clean my apartment everyday. my husband helps me & does it himself as well, we mop frequently, never miss a spot, never leave food out, stay organized .. like all you could think of. AND STILL, I SEE SOME TO THIS DAY. they are relatively small, and i had have to put numerous roach traps all over my apartment. they aren’t a consistent problem because like i said, i’m clean. but still, at first when i moved in, they were very annoying. clearly this is a maintenance problem and they never do anything about it. another thing that is extremely annoying is HOW OFTEN THE ELEVATORS BREAK. every single day it feels like the elevator breaks. for reference, i’m 23 & have 2 kids. one is a few months old, and the other is a toddler. i am a surgical resident, and i have to bring them to work with me every single day except for the days when my husband or mother/mil do not work. it is a constant struggle waiting for the elevator, especially because i live on the 16th floor. it takes 10 minutes, and another 10 minutes because it stops on every single floor. at times BOTH elevators have been broken & i had to take 16 flights of stairs down to the garage. the wifi is also terrible, i’m writing this right now on cellular data because it is the only thing that works. it disconnects extremely OFTEN. im a resident, i work in a hospital making minimum wage because surgical residents do not make as much the first year. my husband is a construction worker & he is the only reason as to why i am holding out hope. i am so grateful to be leaving this place next month with my babies & husband, definitely wasn’t worth it. (ps: you absolutely cannot forget about the construction workers [no hate towards them, they work very hard & are very sweet] knocking at your door to be let in because maintenance wants to make ‘changes’. this is supposed to be a HOME and SAFE SPACE. do better.) IF YOU HAVE KIDS, PLEASE MOVE ELSEWHERE. THE NEIGHBORs ARE VERY LOUD AS WELL.
