    I wouldn’t recommend these apartments to any of my friends or family. They are quick to take your money but don’t care enough to take care of the residents. The leasing team doesn’t help or care as much as they should for the residents or the ones applying. The only person who was of help there was the assistant manger. He cares about the residents and does his best to help. Overall everyone there does not care or help.

    The staff is great. Maintenance is so much better since I've been living here. They also come right away and get the job done as soon as possible. Its just the neighbors, not everyone, of course, but others are inconsiderate and other people who aren't residents that come around.

    It's a pretty setting but there's trash all over the place. I know there's only so much that can be done about that. Rent is a little high also but again, there's only so much that can be done about that.

    Maintenance is very friendly and helpful. The property itself is not the best. La vista is making strides to improve things, but there’s a long way to go. They don’t regulate how many people are living in the units. That’s very concerning. I can see bed sheets in living rooms to add additional “living” spaces. I’ve seen 10 or more people coming and going from a tiny unit meant for three people max. There are no regulations at all here. The only pool accessible is the one by the leasing office. ...
    The other one is always closed because no one monitors their children and it’s a free for all with kids vandalizing the pool area. It’s very sad.
