Roaches

Looks can be deceiving. These apartments appear breathtaking, but the reality is far from it. As a tenant, you are charged monthly for pest control, yet you must call for service to have your unit treated. In contrast, every place I have lived prior, the management took responsibility for pest control and treated every unit, which was included in the rent. Here, there is a severe roach infestation. It's horrible and no matter what you do, roaches will still be present. I'm convinced the entire... complex is infested as I have spoken to various neighbors in different units who share the same problem.

Stay Away - they'll rip you off

I''m only writing this because I saw some of the recent reviews are 5-star. But this is far from the truth and I believe they're fake reviews. The owners will find any means to charge you extra on every little thing. They'll use the lease agreement - which is vague - to suck every penny out of you. Thank me later or "I told you so".

Sweetwater my place I call home

I lived at this community for many years. The staff is incredible. Ali the assistant and Chandra the manager have been the familiar faces I have seen for years. I wish I didn't have to leave. If you are looking for a quiet affordable place to call home, this is it.
