Pretty decent for State College

It's actually a pretty decent place to live--assuming you have a good unit (on the second floor). Units are generally nice, facilities are very nice (nice new gym and pool) and the grounds are kept in good shape. Running water noise is loud, but not unbearable. AC and heating worked fine for me this past year. The apartment itself overall quite pleasant. I know other people have complained about maintenance, but honestly, I've only had good experiences with them. When I've called about problems, they've usually been resolved within 24 hours and by friendly people.

The management staff are overall very nice, although some policies they have are asinine. For example, you can't get a spare key from them for any reason, which is ridiculous. Also, when maintenance put a water heater into my clothing closet taking up half my closet space (without telling me), the management staff's response was less than sympathetic. That said, they are very professional overall and quite friendly. The property manager himself is very friendly and attentive. So, if you can get over some annoying idiosyncrasies, management is quite good (at least, much better than just about anybody else in State College).

So, overall, I recommend this place--decent value for price, overall good staff, overall decent apartment units.
