Great place for the money
My husband and I have lived in a 2 br/1 ba here at Old Orchard for three years now. We love the location! It is central to shopping, movies, and restaurants, but is still in a nice residential neighborhood with lots of families. We have always felt very safe here and even go jogging after dark. We love the walk-in closet and the free storage space in our building. At most apartments, you pay extra for things like storage. There is always plenty of parking for when we have guests over, and we enjoy having a nice balcony overlooking a nice small yard area and our street. We do wish we had a garage (main building has underground ones), a washer/dryer in unit and we do wish they allowed small dogs. These are really our only complaints about it and why we're starting to look elsewhere. Maintenance has always been great, most of the time coming out the same day you call or even within a couple hours. Although it's hard to get Tracy on the phone, she will always send out the maintenance people and make sure it's taken care of. We also love that, unlike most places, your rent actually goes DOWN the longer you live here, which is how it should be to reward loyalty/longevity and entice you to stay. The grounds are well-kept and snow removal is taken care of promptly. I leave for work by 6:45 AM and the sidewalks are always already shoveled and the parking lot plowed. In the summer, the landscaping is very pretty and they keep up with mowing. Our neighbors have been pretty quiet for the most part, and again, when living in an apartment, you accept that others will be sharing your building and you won't get the quiet of a detached house. That's the price you pay.Share This Review
