I lived here from 2008 through the first half of 2009, so I can't speak to some of the more recent reviews. I felt pretty unbothered the entire time I lived there. I had a neighbor above who was developmentally disabled, so we had to deal with occasional noise and a leaky ceiling from the one time he flooded his apartment. But the maintenance staff cleaned everything up pretty quickly. Appliances worked just fine, it was quiet at night and never too loud in the day. Overall, I was satisfied.
