My boyfriend and I have resided in this location downtown for two years now. It comes packed with advantages such as being walking distance to universities, grocery stores, hospitals, etc. The building provides many great amenities like a pool and on-floor garbage chutes plus recycling rooms. There has not been an issue with noise since it is pretty tranquil here. The landlords and employees are always kind and accommodating to our requirements. Although the units may require some refurbishment as we constantly had to fix the cupboards and closet doors, renovations have already started so that should be remedied soon. All things considered, I would rate this apartment an 8 out of 10.

I had a terrible experience at this apartment, with awful management, low security, and pests like mice and cockroaches. The office lady (Natasha) shouted at me, a worker was rude and a construction guy entered my house without my consent - I was not made to feel secure so I bought an extra lock. There were cockroaches everywhere and I saw a mouse running around in the middle of the house - yet I'm one of their cleanest tenants. After that, dead mice began appearing in the hallway as well as cigarette ashes and butts on the stairwells from leaking ceilings - it was truly a nightmare! Workers didn't wear masks or take any care with slamming doors either. All for 1200 rent! Horrible place; you should stay away for your own sake. Had I known about all these issues beforehand, especially the lack of security and unhygienic conditions like mold; let alone how rudely they treated me - there's no way I would have moved in here. It also smells bad due to poor air circulation despite having vents; it smells like garlic every day! To top it off, elevators are always broken with no-one bothering to fix them; pool is dirty too along with half-broken laundry machines. Terrible place – STAY AWAY!!

Before moving in, I asked the building manager if there were any pest issues and was assured there were none; however, a month later, I discovered cockroaches in the unit. The building manager also mentioned that they had a mouse problem. The garbage room door is always open and all sorts of pests can be found inside - rats, mice and roaches included. Additionally, the elevators are continuously broken and slow; when staff needs to clean one of them they'll take it out of service at peak times – after 4pm weekdays and Sundays – which further inconveniences tenants. The laundry situation is not ideal either; frequently over half of the dryers are not working which makes it difficult to find an available one after washing clothes. Considering rent is almost $1400 for a one bedroom excluding parking fees, better conditions should be expected for such an amount.
