The building is not being kept up with and is slowly falling into disrepair. Repairs are temporary patches that fail within weeks, not long-term fixes that address the root cause. Heating was inadequate during winter months. Communication from management was slow and often required repeated follow-ups to get any response. The apartment itself had potential, but the lack of investment in upkeep made it impossible to feel comfortable in.
