Would not recommend to anyone

This place is the absolute worst. Have had maintenance problems since day one of living here. Pipes breaking, tearing open walls, maintenance staff going into my apartment with no warning. Not to mention the incredibly creepy maintenance and front desk staff in this apartment. Iā€¦Ā See More >

      Any staff I have dealt with is extremely helpful and nice. If they are rude, it is probably because that person deserved it. I love the area. Pricing is comparable to other places. I would definitely recommend this place!

                              View is awesome. Best location. Elevators are creepy. Rent is expensive. Kitchen is too small. Overall, I would not recommend living here again unless they lower the rent.
