Overall, the experience was satisfactory. The pictures are accurate. The space is clean and it feels very open when you walk in from the front door. It has a nice patio with a street view. I liked the grey flooring, it helped the apartment feel more modern even though the apartment building itself is older and dated.
One thing to note, the listing is managed by a parent management company called DSPG, but the check in process was handled by a property manager that does not live on site, but is close by and available by cell phone if you need anything.
My stay was a long term stay (over 30 days) and I requested an access code for the front door for deliveries from Amazon, ups and doordash. The DSPG management company through the listing denied my request, and stated due to stolen packages and problems with theft in the past, they could not give me an access code, and to trust that all the delivery companies had the access code already and would not have a problem getting in the door. Sadly, this was not accurate. I had over 3 Amazon delivery drivers contact me via my Amazon ap stating they could not get in the building and ask me for the access code. Luckily, I contacted the building manager on her cell phone and explained that I needed an access code and she was kind enough to give me the access code. For long term stays over 30 days, there should be more flexibility and support for renters because it’s 2021 and most people use Amazon prime and doordash (in particular during Covid) and rely on packages on a daily and weekly basis. Outside of that tiny hiccup, the stay was satisfactory. Coin laundry is downstairs in lobby floor, $1.75 per washer and $1.75 per dryer, quarters only- so make sure you have several rolls of quarters, there is no where to make change on site. This is also a quieter building, which I enjoyed. The neighbors were nice and the property manager in particular was kind and friendly.
