Nice place but the staff is difficult to reach to

Nice and friendly place but the staff is impossible to reach to on phone and email. This has been the issue for very long time. Also maintenance requests are severely delayed. Imagine having a infant baby and there is nobody to reach out directly. It’s sad! The white paint you see in the pictures for one of the apartments for room and restroom comes off easily and getting it repainted is also impossible even though you make 1000s of requests. They will close the requests without doing any work... or letting you know. As I said, lack of communication !! Also, one strange think is you can use heat and gas all day or not use it, you will still be be charged the same. It’s very unfair but they are good at shutting you by saying “ it’s our new policy, we can’t do anything”

Do not go here

This place is terrible the water pressure is always low I can barely take a shower. I can hear everything my neighbor upstairs does even her phone vibrate. Office never answers the phone. The price for this apartment is definitely unjustified.

Horrible place to live

Management and maintenance are extremely unprofessional. My roof has been leaking for 2 days and maintenance has yet to come check it out. Previously my kitchen sink was overflowing and it took them 4 days. The list goes on and on why I hate living here. Stay away!

Mice Infestation, Trash Everywhere, Terrible Landscaping

Your apartment will almost definitely have mice and the complex will ignore this issue. Trash is left out in front of buildings all day long because of their shoddy trash policy. This place looks like it is never mowed. Potholes all over the driveway. The irrigation is so bad, this place is constantly flooded and draining everywhere around the property. No insulation in the windows.

Stay away for so many reasons

My bathroom has been flooding from upstairs unit for over a year. Today I stopped in to learn when the repair would occur, and Melissa said she didn’t know and then made an unrelated phone call in middle of a conversation. I’m confident there is mold behind the walls. While most neighbors are good, some aren’t. 5 people living above me. No soundproof.
