Run away from this place do not rent from here.

This place is falsely marketed. It seems like nothing has been updated since the late 1990s. Everything is outdated, and our unit has an unpleasant smell reminiscent of urine. The shower is rusty, and there are stains everywhere. I am very disappointed and frustrated. I'm just hoping the year goes by quickly so I can leave. By the way, don’t believe the claims about appliances; all we have is an old stove and fridge. Instead of us unpacking and enjoying our “new clean apartment” we have spent... the past two days cleaning after the old tenant. This apartment did not pretend to at least clean after their old tenant. There are hair on the floor everywhere. Don't even get me started on the toilet seat or the sink.

Great all around

I've lived here several years, in my experience, overall staff is courteous and premises are great, maintenance is usually prompt and reliable, grounds are well kept including cleared/salted in winter. Neighbors are mostly quiet and friendly, neighborhood is pretty safe, good location to highways and transit, shopping, medical, food. There are occasional rough spots hence the 4 stars, but they seem to aim for improvement in the long run.

Please read before visiting

Very unsatisfied. I have been in multiple complexes before, and have never experienced this much unprofessionalism. There is a LARGE mice issue that is never fully handled so they are a lingering issue. I had experienced heater issues which led for a week straight (during a snowstorm), was given a space heater and never compensated on my bill. I also had a major parking issue, no designated spots for residents, mislead information by the director, Mo, which led to a towed car. I had to pay ALL... fines, missed a day from work and again, never compensated. The staff is extremely unprofessional; they speak on others business and leak information that should be confidential. I would not recommend the headache or money wasted for how expensive the rent is.
