I have found that the apartment complex is very clean & now has beautiful amenities. With that said, the construction was said to be done in June of 2024 and was finished in January of 2025. I also chose an apartment that was right next to the elevator and it hasn’t worked p of the time I have been here. (Currently been out for 2 weeks). Changing to a positive note, the maintenance portion of this apartment is amazing! Very quick and very kind employees.

So far I have loved living here! There has been construction outside of my apartment for longer than I was told but it hasn’t been a horrible issue. The staff is super helpful and so sweet! The neighbors have been kind so far as well.

Worst Experience I've Ever Had

SALT suffers from mismanagement, poorly enforced rules, and frequent resident violations. Smoking, theft, littering, and other issues go unresolved while management spams residents with ineffective emails. A year-long construction project—undisclosed during leasing—shut down nearly all amenities.

Two weeks after move-in, we were told of renovations closing pools, the gym, and other amenities—contrary to leasing agent assurances. Complaints were dismissed, and rent adjustments denied. SALT... frequently renovates unnecessarily, raising concerns about their priorities.

No direct office line exists; residents must leave voicemails. Emails about issues like broken elevators were sporadic, leaving residents unprepared.

Trash, broken glass, cigarette butts, and even motor oil litter the garage. A $50/month parking fee applies universally. Reckless drivers and blocked stairwells add to frustrations.

Theft of packages, decorations, and Ring doorbells is common. Smoking violations are widespread, with weed and cigarette smells filling stairwells and balconies. Trash is left in stairwells and elevators.

Lax garage security allows unauthorized access. Cars tailgate into the parking garage freely, and security staff are rarely present.

Elevators, gates, and entry fob systems frequently fail, with delayed or missing repair updates. Fire alarms often go off late at night due to resident behavior.

Leasing Agent Issues: Agents provided incorrect information on units and lease terms. Move-in and move-out were chaotic, with no guidance. They refused to provide rent roll documentation and treated fees as negotiable.

Industrial dumpsters blocked our moving area, and agents only assisted after legal threats. They attempted to charge for normal wear-and-tear.

Conclusion: SALT’s modern décor and location can’t compensate for mismanagement and unresolved issues. Renters are better off elsewhere. Don’t be fooled by appearances—it’s not worth the trouble.

Good luck, SALT management—you’ll need it.

Overall it is good community but the leasing team could be more supportive and apartment facilities could have been better, especially since the construction is going on, can't really complain
