Broker & Resident Comments

This residential building offers "basic" accommodations with "no-frills" service since switching from concierge to security staff. Maintenance "could use attention," with some noting "delayed upkeep" of common areas. Management's "hands-off approach" may not suit those seeking white-glove service.
