I don't recommend moving here. I do not plan to renew my lease and I wouldn't suggest this place to any of my family or friends. The Place boasts a "professional office staff." Considering one of the women who works in the leasing office is always "too busy" to even acknowledge tenants and the guy who works in the office has made a habit of arguing with people in the parking lot (I've seen it repeatedly when checking my mail) as well as just generally being rude and disrespectful to tenants, I find this claim difficult to believe. The staff either provides no notice of ground maintenance and specific renovations or they provide inadequate notice (such as delivering a notice late in the evening for something planned at 8am the next morning). There have been several occasions where the water has been turned off for 6+ hours due to pool renovations/maintenance where no notice has been provided. Maintenance is 50/50. Sometimes it's good, sometimes it's not. It's been over 2 months since they were supposed to return with parts to repair/replace my dish disposal. The laundry room situation is a bit of a nightmare. There is no guarantee that a washer or dryer is going to work and getting your lost money back is a real pain. The landscaping is alright, if you like to see things like empty beer cans/bottles sticking out of the shrubs. Noise is another issue. You can hear almost everything outside of the apartment through the exterior walls. Overall the location of The Place is decent. It is very close to UCF. Even though water and internet are included in the rent, it's not really worth the hassle to deal with everything else (especially the office guy). So again, unless you absolutely have nowhere else to live... don't move here.
