The Metropolitan Bala Apartamentos

This building has a serious mouse infestation that management has not addressed. They will provide you with a few mouse bait stations and sticky traps, but besides that, you are on your own. Extermination is not covered in the lease so expect to pay out-of-pocket. No matter how cleanly you keep your apartment, you WILL be living with mice. My top and bottom cabinets and my coat closet are infested. I recently learned they are also capable of climbing up the clothes in my closet to higher ground.... Don’t move here unless you want to live amongst mice. Lee mas

Do not rent here! MICE. I slept in my car for two months as my apartment was infested with mice.

Lived here for a year and never had an issue. All my neighbors were mostly students, so we all kept pretty quiet. Everything overall was very clean, never saw any bugs in my apartment the entire time I stayed there. They have a trash shoot, laundry on each floor, and a parking lot where I always found a spot. Overall, had a great experience.

This building is great for students, especially PCOM you can walk there. It takes me about 10 minutes. I have been living here for two years now and I am very happy with the new manager and the maintenance team. They are so friendly and helpful. They respond right away to anything I have emailed about. They have made a lot of changes and the changes are great!! The sundeck is awesome to sit and study and make a burger. I would definitly recommend this building to anyone.

As a first year med student I had a very positive experience living there. The office manager was very friendly and very quick to respond and maintenance was always there within a day or two. Relatively speaking, it was the best financial option in the area for the given quality, size, and location of my studio. Studying was never an issue because the first floor especially was very quiet. I would definitely recommend it to any incoming students!
