They're still extremely well-kept, and the monthly rent includes heat and hot water. Parking is also included, which is definitely a huge plus. Washer and dryer are located in the basement (of the same building, yay! No more running with laundry through the snow or rain.). In terms of the people who work here, I have primarily dealt with only one individual so far, but she has been immensely helpful with all questions that I've had. The only complaint I have is that they're not very good about answering their phones, even during business hours. But I think in light of the fact that these are great apartments in a great location, that minor detail can certainly be overlooked.

My roommates and I lived at 7 Cameron for two years, and while living there had a great experience…read more The units are sunny and spacious, and the location is great. Under 10 minute walk into Davis Square, and the 77 bus stops right across the street that will bring you right into Porter or Harvard Square. The units are also very quiet despite being right on Mass Ave. The staff working in the building were all great and were really on top of maintenance. This review was prompted, however, by the experience we had upon moving out of the apartment with Acorn Holdings, the owner of the building. We left our unit on August 31st after living in the unit for two years in great condition - cleaning counters, sweeping, vacuuming, and spackling any holes in the wall. The lease very specifically mentioned "broom clean" as the standard, which we honestly went beyond. However, when we heard from the property manager the next week they informed us they would be withholding $2,100 of the $3,000 in our security deposit. A couple things about that: - First, $2,000 of that security deposit was collected from us explicitly related to the two dogs in the apartment - $500 was charged upon move in and an additional $1,500 collected when we added a second. This is a dog friendly building, and there are many canine tenants. However, in the course of this experience we found out that these deposits are illegal in Massachusetts. - The majority of what they were charging was for cleaning the apartment (none of it dog-related) which is also not an appropriate use of deposit funds in Massachusetts: https://www.mass.gov/info-details/find-out-what-landlords-can-use-security-deposits-for - Beyond whether or not they are allowed to use the money for the things they were claiming, the amounts were ludicrous. For example, they claimed they needed to withhold $700 to clean the carpet in a single bedroom which had zero stains or rips, simply was a carpet in a 100 sq ft room that had been lived in for two years. So, they were withholding exorbitant funds they shouldn't have collected in the first place. We raised our concerns about this and stopped hearing from them. We sent several emails and attempted to speak on the phone with our property manager. We were ignored. 30 days passed and we hadn't even received the small amount they were saying they planned to return. Again, breaking housing regulations https://www.mass.gov/info-details/learn-about-returning-or-getting-back-a-security-deposit#failure-to-return-. It was only when we sent documentation showing that we were going to file a housing court claim (which could result in a $7,000 fine) did they reply to our concerns and return the deposit. This behavior would be inappropriate - and illegal - under any circumstances. But in the midst of a pandemic when folks are juggling economic stress with so much else this is nothing short of predatory. Overcharging, ignoring follow up, and hoping that the complexity of housing regulations would prevent pushback.

I had a nightmare experience living at the Old Colony Apartments in Arlington, MA. Only 6 weeks…read moreinto living there, a schizophrenic tenant experiencing a psychotic episode accused me of "hiding" a girl (maybe a previous tenant?) he was obsessed with in my apartment, and told me he needed to get into my unit to see her. He was insistent that I was hiding this person (I live alone), and he told me he knew which door was my unit, so I had to treat this as a serious threat. He also ranted about Jewish people and demanded to know if I was Jewish or not. He sped away from the police when they arrived but was later detained, then released a day or two later. I later learned that there is some program that helps patients with psychiatric issues move into these apartments (obviously, I NEVER would have moved there if I knew this beforehand). I am a huge supporter of improving mental health care and I feel very bad for this man, but this was an extremely alarming situation that could have easily turned into something much worse. As far as I know, the property manager has no interest in taking any meaningful action. The property manager even refused to pay me back for the second half of the month's rent when I had already moved out due to this safety concern. The fact that they do not have to notify other tenants that there is an antisemitic schizophrenic man confronting other residents about his hallucinations should concern any prospective tenant.

The "affordable" rent comes at the cost of your peace and sanity. I've lived here for six months, and from day one it has been exhausting. My neighbor across the hall from me lives in conditions that appear unsafe and unsanitary, and despite clear building-safety concerns, management has done nothing. He has set the fire alarm off several times. There is a severe mice problem, and again, management has taken no meaningful action to resolve it. The building itself is poorly constructed and cheaply finished. Every sound from the upstairs unit shakes the entire apartment--stomping at all hours has become a constant disruption to daily life. We filed a formal noise complaint and even called the police (as instructed by management), only to be told there was nothing they could do. Nothing in the lease is enforced. This is simply how the property is run. Other concerns: during a recent snowstorm, the plowing was unacceptable. On top of that, management covers the sidewalks in excessive amounts of salt--enough to burn dogs' paws--despite advertising this as a dog-friendly building and charging pet rent. Overall, the lack of maintenance, disregard for tenant wellbeing, and mismanagement make this building extremely difficult to live in. I strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

We were in the 5000 building, 3rd floor and had a 1 bedroom with an office and loft. The apartment was very nice, spacious and well lit with sunlight and windows. It was very clean. I never saw 1 insect the entire time I was there in the apartment. There was ALWAYS parking close to the building. It was quiet in our building, rarely seeing people or hearing through walls (we were on the top floor though). Every interaction with management or maintenance was prompt and professional. The pool is a bit small for the volume of tenants, but no 6 year old cares about that. The location is perfect, it's close to all highways and set up off the street. It has great walking and biking trails- I often see families walking and biking. The only annoyance was our downstairs neighbor who complained about our foot traffic noise twice within a month of living here. Management was professional in their communication to us about it. And I guess after a while she accepted the fact that we do have to walk in our apartment. Living here made our LONG renovation bearable. I was never anxious to leave or frustrated in our living situation. The costs were not cheap, but not a ripoff. We had to extend a few weeks and they were very reasonable in their accommodation of us. The main building (12000) is much more densely populated and I doubt I would feel the same if we were there. If possible, I'd suggest one of the smaller building on the periphery if you are looking here (4000, 5000, 8000, 9000) or the townhouses if the cost isn't an issue. This fall they renovated our unit- new floors, appliances, bathroom. What a treat. If only our housing contractors could move that fast!
