A place like home. Security has never been an issue at this moment and praying that it would continue. Appreciate the free events that the management is conducting regularly as well as the free hot drinks. Though there were times not available. Service requests are prompt to comply and deliver the needed work.

I’ve recently renewed my lease at Whetstone Apartments for another year. Not just because of its proximity to my workplace but also because of its amenities and the cleanliness of its areas. The corridors are regularly cleaned. The parking area is a covered space and I feel it’s a safer area compared to the first apartment I’ve stayed before. The maintenance team responds immediately within the day or a day after I made my online request.
