Good overall!
Lived here for over a year. Pros: Love the proximity to Grays Lake and downtown! The free parking is awesome, but spots fill up and I often have to park on the street. Cons: Expensive. Walls are extremely thin and the pounding footsteps from the person living above me are SO loud. I liked it better when Indigo managed the property…Artisan is not responsive and has ghosted me several times when I’ve had questions about things. 2 of the 3 treadmills have been broken for ages.

Convenient location
I enjoy cityville’s location because I can walk to the nightlife downtown and walk my dog to Gray’s Lake.
