Lisa was the best thing about this place. The same thing can't be said about the unit or the building itself. This 70's structure was likely built without the intention of cooking ventilation - because there isn't any - that is to say, there is no proper kitchen (no oven, only hotplates etc.). This means cooking smells waft into the hallways, which can be quite disturbing.
The other issue is the safety concern around smoking. The building has built-in smoke detectors (quite old) and obviously are not very sensitive because I could smell smoke from other units - this is quite disturbing since this puts all occupants at risk of fire.
The unit itself has only 1 sink which does double-duty (acts as a kitchen and bathroom sink - yikes!) There isn't any area to put down your hair brush near the mirror other than near kitchen items (ugh!). There isn't enough surface areas to put general items such as toiletries - no bedside table etc.
The view is good but the noise from the cars, trucks ambulance, sirens, honking gets old quickly. The direct sunlight through the floor to ceiling window is welcoming at first, but causes the room to swelter, even with the ac hard at work.
If you are ok with the issues mentioned, then this may be a good option.
Other than that, Lisa was responsive and professional.
