This building literally sucks. In summer you have cockroaches everywhere. what's more they try to do extermination. But one day you get a notice to empty the cabinets and then someone comes and just installs a small roach trap that didn't need emptying everything and evacuation. don't get surprised if they suddenly open your private apartment door to show your apartment to someone or just to put your doormat inside!! The electricity in the building keeps cutting down and no one is responsible for your clothes in the laundry!!
The garbage stinks and no one changes them especially during the holidays. You might wake up from a person painting the wall and removing the older paint. Yes that is the only thing the building does, painting the walls. though the elevator doesn't work properly and it stuck somewhere from time to time. The customer service is awful and they ask you to pay the last month rent as well when you sign a contract which is illegal. Just stay away from this wooden old building that the sounds won't let you sleep late at night or early in the morning.

The building is really well located, like 5 mins from Concordia and everything and the janitor is really nice.
The building is a little noisy, you can hear your neigbour if they have loud music on. I've sent emails to the administration and they said they sent a letter to the neighbors. When you report something to get fixed it takes afew days but at least it gets done. It gets a little hot in the halls in the summer as well. The new washing machines are nice, you don't need coins anymore so thats a plus.

Overall its a great location ad resonable price for the central location

I read had read reviews prior to renting here and was almost discouraged to rent. However decided to rent anyways and Im glad I did.
Location is amazing as im only a few minute walk from school, my apartment is renovated however I did see some of my neighbors units not as well updated then mine. Ive never had issues my the management company as when I did have a problem they came right away and sent a plumber. I did not have any bedbugs or cockroaches in my unit however the management company does send us memo if we want any preventive treatments. Anyways for me price and location are great and will continue to rent until the end of my studies

This building is awful. Management is awful. it took them 2 months to change our buzzer number after sending several emails to them! we asked them to repair our wash basin several times but they never showed up. the house is infested with cockroaches. the provided wifi is useless and never work. the manager never replies emails and when they want to ask for the lease renewal or anything for their own benefit, they come and knock at doors at 7 AM and won't stop knocking until you wake up. apartment is totally overpriced. if you want to be tortured this bulding is the best choice.

Terrible location, even for students. It's not even cheap (650-750$ for studios and 1.5 only)! Neighborhood is unsafe and noisy, almost every night and sometimes during day. Random people check your back door and look inside your apartment while you're away/asleep. Some neighbors work at night and forget to be discreet in corridors... The landlord and janitor come in without permission while you're away and browse through some of your stuff. You can hear chit-chat downstairs even with windows closed, which also means it's hard to stay cool during summer or warm during winter. The landlord/office is unresponsive, will only do something if threatened by the Régie du Logement. Their repairs are terrible (they don't even listen, fix something after inspecting the issue for 5 seconds, then leave). Don't expect them to come within less than 2 weeks for any issue you may have. They don't speak either French or English properly so it's nearly impossible to communicate with them, by mail or face to face. Bedbugs on all floors, water leaks and faulty electrical outlets in some apartments, the bathroom is in pretty bad shape and very narrow. No privacy in the bathroom, with neighbors in the buildings all around. The lease agreement asks for papers you shouldn't have to show, you can only pay your rent with cash (they give you a receipt though). You are downtown so you have easy access to lots of shops, but it's not worth it considering the huge amount of defects. They even change the WIFI password without telling anyone, to force people to go downstairs and pay the rent on time. The fire alarms trigger randomly, even after inspection. Firemen had to come and check once, for no reason. This is everything I witnessed after only 3 months here. Do NOT go there! Save your money for something nicer, and keep away from that company, they have various buildings in the neighborhood.

This building is awful. They always advertise that it is for students, but honestly it is not. It has noise problem and the landlord doesn't address this issue. It is not warm at Winter. It is not a smoke free building. I am student and I have to stay at school from morning until night every day even on weekends because of noise problem. I cannot sleep at night without ear plugs. Don't waste your money here.
