I lived here for school a couple years ago and the experience was terrible. Cockroaches, bugs, and stained carpets made it unpleasant. The paint was cheap, peeling off and bubbling after some time. Maintenance took forever to respond to requests and the office often closed when I needed help. There was just one laundry card station in the rental office building, but the washing machines were filthy with water all over the floor sometimes. After leaving before my lease ended they refused to refund my full month's rent even though they wanted renovate/repaint/upgrade the place.
This review is from someone who has lived in building 143 Eighth street for over a year. For privacy reasons, their name won't be revealed. The exterior of the building isn't attractive and yard maintenance is rare; the garden display hasn't been worked on in ages and grass cutting is infrequent with trimmings left behind. The interior is outdated with old stairs, entrance door, entrance doors to floors and hallway carpeting that need upgrade; they have just been painted over. The units have new appliances such as fridge, stove, toilet and tub when you move in which gets a 10/10 rating; however walls are worn out with many imperfections like cracks, pealing heaters etc. Cockroaches were also seen soon after moving in but this was managed by getting someone to caulk along all baseboards at an expense of nearly $400 - this coupled with regular spraying has kept cockroaches away since then (which can also be attributed to keeping the unit clean). It's recommended to hire someone for caulking and covers for electric sockets while making sure sinks and bathtub are covered after use to prevent pests. This place could be great due to its location but needs extensive renovation both inside and out as well as pest management control; if yoThis review is from someone who has lived in building 143 Eighth street for over a year.
