  • Wonderful Building

    March 19, 2025
    Location, location, location! Wonderful family owned stores around and my neighbors have been some of the best people I've met. Maintenance and staff are always helpful and very responsive. Pet friendly building was a huge plus for us.
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Best Location in SD

    September 16, 2020
    Amazing location for everything and if you have pets. It was exciting to move into a new building and yes there was some hiccups but the team has been great to work with. The manager has gotten everything resolved and very quickly too.
    Review from Apartments.com
  • Great location, no so great building

    August 28, 2020
    Can't be this Hillcrest location however despite being brand new building, the quality of construction is terrible. Floors 3 & above have wood framing in between floors and you here every step that your neighbors above take. The front doors to each unit do not block hallway noise. For instance, I can neighbor's dog who is 4 doors down from me. Walking down the hall, you can hear not just neighbors conversations crystal clear, but also their bedroom activities. The appliances are very cheap ...
    and inefficient. Its nice having an in-unit W/D however is sounds like a train coming through your apartment. I cannot run laundry while during the day while on Zoom calls. This leads to higher utility bills.
