Misleading title, deceiving managment
July 25, 2023Overpriced housing in addition to greedy management, and poor amenities. Management is rude and unprofessional, along with lying about their spaces. Make sure to always thoroughly tour and have a very detailed walkthrough of your unit. They'll do anything to take as much of your security deposit as well.Review from Apartments.com

August 29, 2019Cons: - car broken into - 9-months-straight-weekly-construction that frequently blocks parking areas and often literally leaves you trapped in the complex - "this week we finish the construction", 2 months later, still woken up weekly at 8am to the sounds construction - "pet designated areas" used to be a decent patch of grass with doggy bags, now it's a 2x2 foot dirt patch near the mailboxes - management is almost impossible to contact via email, have to see them face to face - had to ...repeatedly contact management (various emails, at least 3 times in person over 2 months)to get forms when roommate moved out to amend lease agreement - having to plan multiple days around "maintenance" where power, water, and laundry was cut off. - single room vs studio: you have a wall that separates the "bedroom" and the " living room", but this wall isn't complete and no door to separate the two so really it's just a studio with a partial wall that gets in the way. Pros: - near 24 hour fitness and Safeway - walking distance to downtown - balcony - the wood floors are nice - kitchen is niceRead MoreReview from Apartments.com
