Multiple maintenance issues and request repair has been submitted and yet nothing is actually fixed. There has been no water heater for a couple of months now and they have just marked completed the maintenance complaint about the water heater and yet nothing was done. So unreliable management!

Do not move here. Worst experience ever. Terrible management. Maintenance guys stealing. Elevator always broken. Mail packages stolen. Bugs and pests in other units. Everything always breaks and they take ten years to fix it. Hot water goes out every so often. Just an overall terrible experience for anyone.

I went to tour these apartments and the management was unorganized and rude. Very condescending. The tour took less than 5 minutes and was almost unhappy I asked for the tour even though THEY REACHED OUT TO ME! do not recommend

You must consider this apartment complex a WALK-UP at any given time because the elevators are Constantly Broken, I got stuck in an elevator once for about 45min and had to call 911 because their call button was disabled. There was a literal shooting on the first floor here in April, their entrances are always unlocked, anybody can walk in and packages go missing constantly. They also promised many amenities like the outdoor patio and hot tub which have never become available to us. They will be... doing construction on the bottom floors for the next 12 months so it will be loud to live here! They also tried to upcharge my lease by over $200/mo just to continue living here next year with no reasoning. Parking is extra and you pay all utilities yourself so you need to add about $200/mo to the rent to accommodate that.

Spend the extra money and go to the nicer complexes. This place is absolute garbage in my opinion . Dirty. Stinky. No secure entrance or exit. Shootings. Homeless ppl. Stolen packages. No management available ever. Loads of extra charges every month. Stolen cars. Bar fights. Leaking pipes. No AC. Rat and bug infested. No timely maintence. Elevators are always broken. I could keep going….
