I moved into this area without knowing anyone or being too familiar. I knew I wanted to be close to downtown Royal Oak and Lafayette Court is just a short walk which is awesome. I am on the first floor and it is occasionally noise because the walls are thin; however, you get used to it after a while. The maintenance staff has been very quick & helpful with any issues I have had. Although the appliances & inside is a bit outdated, they are very nice once you get all settled in. I am in my mid-20's and the walk to Downtown Royal Oak is amazing, even in the winter months. It is a very safe area and I would highly recommend to everyone. They could use more parking and upgrades on a lot but a great location & apartment!
