Metropolis Towers Apartments

The apartments themselves inside are decent and relatively spacious and it is right across the street from the path which is amazing. However, (BIG HOWEVER) there is a huge roach problem that they have not been able to fix for years. They allow tenants to move from apartment to apartment trying to find one without roaches but they do not exist. The HOT WATER goes out at least once every other day. If you call management they always tell you they are working on it and nothing changes. Additionally, the HEAT will go out at least once a week in the winter. Please note that heat and hot water are included in the price of the rent but the management does not refund for the days there is no heat or hot water. Additionally, one of the elevators is always broken so it takes a long time waiting for the elevators in whichever way you are going. Finally, the entire building smells. It's pretty embarrassing to have people over to your place. The building honestly has a slight vomit/garlic smell. They have shampooed and sprayed the rugs many times but it does not go away, probably because they need to replace the rugs and won't. Also, the laundry rooms frequently have several machines broken so it can be very difficult to get all your laundry done at once as there are not enough working machines usually to just walk in any time and do your laundry.



Overall, it is cheap and conveniently located but if you have literally any other option do not stay here. Most people in these buildings are in transition and almost no one renews their lease.
