as a disclaimer, overall I enjoyed living here but I would have liked to know these things before I moved in. let's dive right in!
-no air conditioning so in the summer months it's crazy hot, get atleast one fan!
-no elevator (but accessible washrooms on upper floors?)
-cleaning crew, no offense to them, does a terrible job A lot of the time (picture attached, doesn't show too well and I don't want to take a picture of whatever bodily fluid is on the door handle right now). there has been something nasty around the toilets and on the door handle for about a month now
-living with people sucks in general. people will erase your whiteboard and vomit everywhere which they will not clean!!! and people will take your wet clothes out of the dryer just to use it, and eat your food if you leave it in the communal fridges.
-not much gets done about noise complaints, which means people screaming at 2:30 in the morning on a Tuesday
-the curtains don't actually stifle sunlight
-people like to scream outside your window at all hours of the night
-the kitchens never work. for example, the 3rd floor girls side kitchen's fuse blows out whenever the toaster oven and microwave are in use at the same time and it doesn't get fixed for days (happens about once a week)
-there's a Brita filter on every floor but it dispenses such a small amount of water at a time that it takes a solid 4 minutes just to fill up a water bottle. and the water is warm!
there's more but this is all the comes to mind. most of the people here are really nice and you're sure to make a ton of friends but if you're high maintenance this may not be the place for you!! good luck!
The best VISION candidate lives here. That makes it great.
Bathrooms were really clean, the room was really hot
