I Like it Here!

Chnged it's name to "EDGE", so beware of that one.
This place changed it's name to "EDGE", so be wary if you encounter a place by that name. It's the same building with the same issues.ā¦Ā See More >anonymous

WRONG Community!
I was reading this past review and I think that they must have the wrong place. For one the current manager has been at Somerset for over 3 years and I find her very nice and always in the office, some times even after officeā¦Ā See More >anonymous

Stay away, far away
I have lived here for several months, and can't wait to get out. You have to ask two or more times, even after you've put it in writing, if you want anything fixed. It's very noisy. The management has some kind of obsession with industrial-strengthā¦Ā See More >anonymous

False review on March 5th
The March 5th comment is obviously a positive but false review (management posing as a tenant). <br> <br>This is not the place for building management to place ads. The building is not as good as the "review" states. <br> <br>I have left a neutral rating.ā¦Ā See More >anonymous
