    The community is great and the amenities, especially the gym, is great for me. I enjoy the clean environment as well. I don’t have any complaints, other than it’s far from my classes.

    I just moved in here at Alexander court and so far the experience has been great. They supplied food on the first day which was very nice, and moving in wasn’t too bad.

    A very nice complex. Staff and maintenance are very friendly and helpful. There is quite a bit of noise as it is down town, but the trash trucks also come early and are very loud depending on where your unit is.

    Really great location and area, in proximity to everything downtown and very close to campus. I like the bedroom and living room setup. Only negative is the very limited kitchen storage space.

    It was an easy move. Ivory was such a sweetheart, and then Shanon made the process easy and understandable. I like the apartment. I hope the maintenance makes an appointment with us when they come for maintenance.
