Spacious units, great amenities & friendly staff! Maintenance is quick, but parking can be tricky. Overall, a solid place to live! One drawback is that the walls are very thin, I can hear my neighbors music, and even within the apartment itself if I'm sitting in my room, I can hear everything happening in the living room etc.

This place is nice although the facilities are a little bit old, but they are quick to repair and there are not a lot of cockroaches,I like this community, and the shuttle also has two large cars, which is very good.
