July 25, 2025I’ve noticed some really positive changes in the community recently, and it genuinely makes me happy. Things are gradually getting better—from cleaner shared spaces to quicker responses from management. One thing I’m especially glad about is the installation of package lockers to help prevent stolen deliveries. It’s reassuring to see that our concerns are being heard and addressed. Looking forward to seeing continued improvements!Property Manager Responded

Review from Apartments.com
Exhausting Experience with Repeated Leaks
May 5, 2025I’ve been living here since August 2024, and unfortunately, I’ve experienced three major leaks in my unit. The most recent one, on May 5th, was by far the worst—water was actively leaking from the ceiling in the same spot as before, to the point where it felt like it was raining inside my bathroom. I had to place two buckets to catch the water, and the wall was soaked and crinkled again. The hallway outside my unit was leaking too. What was most upsetting wasn’t just the recurring damage, but the ...lack of urgency in addressing it. I called maintenance multiple times and couldn’t reach anyone. When I finally did, I was told help was coming, but no one showed up. I felt completely alone in dealing with what felt like an emergency situation, and I didn’t feel safe in my own home. Previous leaks were never fully repaired—walls left damaged, ceiling panels left open—and I’ve had to live with the aftermath. This has been an incredibly stressful and exhausting experience, and I sincerely hope future improvements are made to better protect residents and respond to urgent issues quickly.Property Manager Responded
