A great place for immobile people
November 20, 2025This is a very friendly, clean, and overall, a great place for anyone to live in. I am only able to move around in a wheelchair. My wheelchair can clear all of the doorways. This place also has an elevator. I can enjoy the sunsets from the top floor.Property Manager Responded
December 1, 2025Your positive experience means everything to us. We're thrilled our accessible features and friendly environment work perfectly for you.
Review from Apartments.com
This place is awesome!
November 20, 2025When we first moved into our unit, it was clean, and we did not have any issues with the bedrooms, bathrooms, the kitchen, or the thermostat. The maintenance people are friendly. Our neighbors are not noisy. This apartment is great, especially, for anyone who is only able to get around in a wheelchair. Everyone that we have interacted with here, is friendly.Property Manager Responded
December 1, 2025Thank you for your review! We're thrilled you found your unit clean and our maintenance team friendly. Great to hear about wheelchair accessibility.
