    Great Location

    I enjoyed living here. The location was great, the apartment was great, the gym was great. Parking could be better but had no issues with maintenance or office people. All nice and responded quickly to whatever I needed. Bought a house but love the location.

            Disappointing

            No issues with the cost or location. Be aware that when renewals come around your rent will increase. The staff is not empathetic, kind or courteous. The dumpsters are constantly overflowing and with the Kansas wind you can find the trash blown throughout the complex.ā€¦Ā See More >

              Iā€™ve lived at this apartment for over two years and more common than not I am woken up each morning by loud work outside of my window. The complex is doing constant renovations which is a huge pain to residents. Also, parking is a nightmare.ā€¦Ā See More >

                                                    A:Ā I recently responded to this question. For further clarification ... there is no designation between resident or guest parking. Parking is generally readily available for both guests and residents. I hope this helps.
