I VERY MUCH regret moving into this sh*thole. It looks like a 90s dorm in the halls. It smells like a bar - every single night I smell my neighbors smoking coming through the vent. It sounds like a brothel since the paper thin walls don't block out much. Plus I'm pretty sure the upstairs neighbor lives in stilettos. Management is unresponsive and occasionally just rude. Do not live here. Oh and the "free tenant parking lot" spot to Tenant ratio is like 1:100 ... don't plan on getting a spot.

My husband and I lived here for one year, and we were SOOOO happy the day we moved out. The apartment space is really unique, and we loved the hard-wood floors and new appliances. There were no bugs or mice, and we felt very safe with the security guard. Furthermore, parking was always easy between the lot behind the building and street parking. Utilities are included which was especially sweet during the summer months. The absolute downside is the NOISE!!! I cannot stress this enough. The floors provided absolutely N... read more

This place reminds of a college dorm....a VERY expensive...loud...dorm! 1. College parties that goes on late at night 2. The smell of smoke and pot in the hall ways 3. If you are unlucky, you will hear your neighbors next door having sex, talk or really LOUD footsteps above your head (VERY poor insulation) 4. Management is rude and very unhelpful 5. For rent that average $2,000, last thing you'd expect is mouse in your unit. If you are going to pay a lot of money to live in the city, this is not a good investment for you.... read more

This is the worst facade of a legitimate building. I say that knowing that yes, there are a lot of spaces that are worse, but for the presentation that the management company gives, this is definitely not what it seems to be at first glance. It's loud- you can hear everything around you at all times. Not only if your unit is sharing a side with a street (I hear plenty of trucks, people, cars, rumblings, whatever) but I hear things that go on two floors above me. I hear people outside of my unit in the hallway. I can feel th... read more

I agree with the negative reviews. Lived here for a year and it was an entirely unpleasant experience. The building has a huge mouse problem and management is unresponsive to it. Being on the "other" side of Mass Ave there are plenty of undesirables loitering around and there were several car break-ins and arrests on Camden St while I lived here. There's also always a lot of police activity in the area. Parking is a nightmare. Management is all smiles and very little else. Had a broken fixture when I moved in, reported it to... read more

I've lived at the PCG for the better part of this year, and I'm sorry to say that this place absolutely blows. My place was left in a shambles by the previous tenant. It had not been cleaned when I moved in; the kitchen was a dysfunctional assemblage of wonky drawers, holey cabinets, and outdated, dinged-up appliances; and the walls were straight ghetto, with spackle bits all over the place. After a bunch of lip service, nothing has changed, except that I now also have a mouse problem. The jokers who run the place have acr... read more

I think it is a charming place, just avoid the units facing Northampton Street. The gas station gets deliveries via truck very late at night and it leaves through Northampton Street rather then heading out on Tremont. That is noisy and very difficult to get used too.

I have nothing nice to say about these apartments. Hopefully this will alert potential renters that they may want to consider ALL other options before resorting to this experience. There is an incredible amount of hidden damage due to prior floods, mold and mildew problems, and pests. Last winter we listened to rats scurry through the walls each night. This summer, all we smell is mold coming through the windows from the moldy concrete below. Since I've been here, the worst of what has happened to me (personally, not hea... read more

One of the most ridiculous apartment experiences I've had. During the time I lived here ... It took them about 6-8 months to fix the main elevator and when they finally did ... someone defecated in it (seriously). The management can be rude and unhelpful. The walls are paper thin, so you can hear everything - even through the floors. There were problems with bugs and mice. The location is convenient, but can be a little sketchy. I was mugged about a block away and I witnessed someone shot on the sidewalk directly in front... read more
