Reviews
The building is very humid, and it tends to be sometimes smelly in the gym, laundry room and hallways because of that.
There were 2 power outages during my stay here (both lasted more than 8 hours), and there was little to no communication, and no compensation at all.
Furthermore, when I started my lease, this property offered 2 months free because there were rats in the building. The rats are still there, in spite of the work of the engineering team that was always helpful. However, the rent that was charged to me is actually an overpriced rent, made to accomodate the 2 gree months. And now, at the end of the lease, this amount goes up again. Someone starting a lease now would therefore pay 300 less for a same apartment.
This is a very poor way to handle business, and for all of those reasons, i do not recommand this place.
I will also note that although the grills are always clean they are 75% of the time out of gas or broken. I also agree with the other reviews of the persistent elevator and water issues.

Love the portion sizes at ABP, everyone will find something suitable. I like that they display the calorie count so I can pick and choose to meet my daily requirements.
The salmon wasabi bagel is the absolute best!!! If you get a skinny bagel, it's less then 400 Cal! Turkey chilli is a great option in colder weather and their power packs are great anytime :)
