    Decent but not worth the price

    Pros:
    - Centrally located within walking distance to grocery stores, restaurants, and coffee shops
    - Safe mail deliveries and packages (never lost a package even when left in the mail room/ lobby for couple to few days)

    Cons:
    - Rent increase almost on a yearly basis (ex. If you lived here for 4 years, you would have seen rent increased 4 times)
    - Poor ventilation. Stuffy and hot in the apt, and especially unbearable (like a sauna, inside much hotter than outside) during the summer unless you    … install your own air conditioning. The internet installation guy even remarked about how hot and stuffy upon entering the lobby towards the end of summer.
    - Downtime whenever the elevator, parking garage door, garbage door requires maintenance, taking 1-3 weeks to resolve/fixed
    - Tight garage parking spots. You wouldn’t be able to squeeze between your car door and pillar or car next to you after having a burger
    - Calling management almost always sent directly to their voice mail
    - Noisy. Crazy/mentally unstable homeless across the street at Safeway yelling profanities in the middle of the night. Wall is paper thin.

    Overall cons outweighs and pros.
