My husband and I moved into this apartment complex in 1997, during the economic boom of the city. It was practically the only apartment we could afford that didn't look like a ----- house. And it was $1200 in 1997! Although we soon found out that it was infront of two -----/drug buildings. We actually saw a woman in the Jefferson Hotel across the street, bending over her window sill, and looking pretty bored, while someone behind her was having sex with her ass. I'm not even kidding. That is just the beginning.
All the floors 2-5 smell like urine. If you live facing Eddy (which we did) you will be woken up at all hours of the night by whores fighting with their pimps, or druggies with their dealers, or just drunk people harrassing whomever might walk by.
As one of other reviewers mentioned. The entire neighborhood smells rotten, mostly like old, greasy chicken. Ever since we moved out in 2001 I have not been able to even drive/walk through the neighborhood b/c the smell makes me so ill.
The "security" guards are WORTHLESS and will let anyone into the building. I've actually seen them sleeping. And they dont' speak any english so don't bother to try to communicate with them.
Basically, if you're not from San Francisco, take it from us that are. Any apartment in the Tenderloin, Lower Nob Hill, Civic Center, Western Addition, Hunter's Point and the Folsom Street area is an area you want to stay away from. You might have to settle for a smaller apartment but at least it won't depress the crap out of you everytime you have to leave your building and walk through your neighborhood. It's not only the smell but all the trash that hangs around the neighborhood; and if you're a female like me, good luck. Every drunk SOB will try to talk to you. Even the homeless people who are passed out on the ground will try to hit on you.
Oh, another "great" story. As my husband and I were walking home from a movie one night, we passed 4 people doing crack on the sidewalk. The cops are W-O-R-T-H-L-E-S-S They don't do CRAP about ANYTHING in the 'loin. From people pilfering their stolen goods on the street, blocking the entire sidewalk, to people standing on the street corners wearing nothing but fishnet panty hose.
Oh, and by the way. My husband didn't tell me this until after we moved out, but apparently during our first few weeks living in the building, a guy was shot to death across the street. On the corner of Eddy and Hyde you can still see the white outline of his dead body.
AND another thing, one the reviewers mentioned Rebecca. Rebecca is a complete -----. She is the biggest ----- I have ever had to deal with. She always made me feel like my requests were my problem. And she was VERY condensending.
