No Uniform pricing across the apartments. The people who joined 2 years before are continued with same price of $1650 and the same vacant apartments are leased at $2040. The same services are being charged with different price variations. I recommend one star for thisā€¦Ā See More >

      I was there for 2 years. It was a fairly good neighborhood & conveniently located But you just got to forget your rental deposit & they are rip-off. My car parked outside next to the apartment was broken into. I would say you can lookā€¦Ā See More >

              I stayed in the 1 bed appt for 1 year. The apartments are big and spacious compared to most of the other 1 bed apartments. But the disadvantages are more: 1. No matter how you keep your Appt, you'd not get your deposit back. So considerā€¦Ā See More >

                      If you decide to live here, keep in mind that you will losse all your security deposit when you move out. The manager ( Jane ) is so rude and she always thinks she is a boss and you have to obay her commands. So gladā€¦Ā See More >

                        Don't ever live here. When things fall apart, Jane insist that you did it, and won't consider that it is wear & tear. The apartment is old, drawers in the kitchen has no sliders, so they create wood dust which collect into yourā€¦Ā See More >

                          I've been here for almost 3 years. Good thing for this complex is it is not expensive and you can have lower rent if you renew your contract. 1 bed room apartment here is larger than other places. Space-wise it worths the price. <br><br>My complainsā€¦Ā See More >

                                              The environment is very nice. Rent is reasonable in this area. But when you move out, 50% of the deposit will be paid for cleaning of carpets, windows, kitchens, drapes, etc., which is not usual among all apartments.
