      Hello, Thank you for sharing your review with our team. Our community is undergoing significant renovations, including the fitness center; however, the process is taking longer than expected due to supply shortages and other considerations. To address a few of your concerns directly, the AC is approved to be replaced. The team is also working on renovating the fitness center, which includes replacing all the items mentioned in your review. We'd also like to note that vendors and repairmen are not always aware of what is happening behind the scenes, so we encourage you to give us a call if you ever have any questions. We hear your concerns and invite you to give us a call so we can speak to you personally. We look forward to working with you to address your concerns, and we hope you have a wonderful day!
