      Apartment is nice and location is ideal. Only issue is not having someone working in the office regularly. I enjoy living on the property. Oh I also wish they had a gym but I did know this when I moved in I just didn’t realize the importance of a gym on site until already living here.

      We liked very much the attention received, the apartment was not delivered in very good condition, clean and with some new things inside the apartment. The maintenance staff is very friendly, the residential area is very quiet and peaceful. We are very happy to be part of this community.

      September 8, 2018
      Not a safe place. Saw a ladies dogs die here and a few peoples apartments and car get broken into. I've also seen them kick people out for no apparent reason. You can hear everything, they have no amenities. Found a new place leaving soon because the management is terrible!

    • Paper Thin walls, bugs, and NO amenities

      September 8, 2018
      This company is horrible, the management doesn't know how to do their jobs. People come in an out, my car got broken into and I just got an email stating to lock your doors when it was MY WINDOW that got broken. The walls are thin, they are horribly expensive for no amenities. Do not live here! They just recently kicked a couple out for no reason and their dogs died here.
