Lived here for almost 3 years. I had a 1 bedroom ground floor apartment, and never had any big problems. Everything was relatively well taken care of, the staff was responsive and friendly, and I had good privacy. My issues... guest parking is a hassle.ā€¦Ā See More >

        ABSOLUTELY HORRENDOUS! We have lived here for quite some time and it has only gotten worse. Starting from the beginng: they said they were in the process of remodeling the gym and that was one of the reasons we moved here. 4 years later theyā€¦Ā See More >

              I personally don't like these apartment ratings because most of them are negative for ALL apartments. I mean if you think about it, most people will write a review only if they had negative experiences, not positive ones. However I will describe both my negativeā€¦Ā See More >

                Dishonest and rude staff. Never move in!

                I wouldn't suggest to move in this apartment because I was cheated by the staff. In the beginning, I applied an apartment and put $100 deposit. They told me I could get my deposit back if I cancel the application within 72 hours, and becauseā€¦Ā See More >

                    Very rude management team.

                    I would not recommend this property to anyone. The assistant manager never says hello and never smiles. The manager says one thing and does another. The price is way too high for what you get. They have several feral cats they don't control. They alsoā€¦Ā See More >

                                          The staffs here are extremely rude. They are very uncooperative and always treat tenants with no respect. I am not sure if that is the complex policy or the management has hired a bunch of rude people for their staff.

                                            almost no-response/actions to repair request. But become very active when they nick-picking. You have to walk very very softly otherwise the sound will cause neigbor to complain.
