Rachel, thanks for taking the time to review our community. I’m certain you will find that you made a great decision. The community was constructed by the same family that manages the property today. They care, and make clear to every member of the... team the need to go beyond what we are required to do to give our residents a world class experience. They also continuously invest in the property to enhance not only features such as flooring and cabinetry that are seen by the public, but features perspective residents take for granted like fire and security. As the manager, I get sent copies of all applications, (the ultimate decision to approve or not approve an application is done by our credit review team); I noticed that your husband spent a career in the military, and I personally want to say thank you for his service. Our veterans have a special place in our hearts. We have partnered for many years now with Homes for Our Troops, and organization that works to build barrier free housing for veterans. We make a contribution on behalf of every new resident to Home for Our Troops. Our new residents love the idea (especially our veterans), and we feel like we are making a difference. You can visit our web page and find out more about Homes for Our Troops. Thanks again for choosing the Ambassador Apartments as your new home.

We are delighted that you were pleased with the presentation of your new home. We work very hard to make sure each and every new home is delivered to a level we ourselves would be happy to move into. The weather was perfect today. Hopefully, you will... have some time to relax and enjoy the weather, and perhaps even catch some sun by the pool. This is a great community, and it's located in an area that is very convenient to major highways, public transportation, restaurants, schools, parks, and shopping (food, groceries and other services). It’s a wonderful community, nested and embedded in green beautifully landscaped surroundings. As I have many times, we have an AMAZING team of dedicated staff (Inna is one of many bright, caring and dedicated team members) men and women. We look forward to making your residency here at the Ambassador Apartments a very special experience. Thanks for choosing our community as your new home.

I agree the VIP kitchens with self-closing doors and drawers, easy reach cabinets and black granite tops combined with our new floating wood flooring are magnificent. They make a super large apartment, look bright and even larger. Combined with a... superior layout, high level construction materials, great architectural design, superior craftsmanship, and superb support team and you begin to understand how special the Ambassador Apartment community is. I come to work every day enthusiastic, and grateful to be part of the support team. We really appreciate it when new or old residents share their experiences with families that are just beginning their search for a new apartment home. Our great community is located within walking distance of gyms, grocery stores and drug stores, and minutes from rail stops or access to I95 or the PA Turnpike. It’s the perfect place to call home by any measure. Thanks again.

Komron thanks for taking the time to tell other families who are looking for a new rental home about your experience. We have been upgrading all the bathrooms in the Ambassador Apartments as new residents move in. We decided to recently provide an... optional upgrade to our kitchens and your residence was our first one. We did a lot of planning before we chose the cabinet style and manufacturer. The soft close drawers, the self-closing hinges the all wood interior with the new kitchen top and backsplash is truly more beautiful than I imagined. I love the way the kitchen came out, and I’m not alone, all of our staff and now our first resident agrees. We continue to invest in our communities common areas (with new security doors and windows, surveillance system, LED lighting in both the exterior and interior spaces, video intercoms, keyless entry system) and our apartments to make our communities stand out at the market leader they are. This year we were awarded and recognized by two national reviewing companies for our hard work. One national company announced that the Ambassador Apartments was the 137th out of 140,000 communities Nationally for customer satisfaction in all of the USA, and 3rd (just behind another of our communities) in all Philadelphia and Pennsylvania. The second national reviewing company reaffirmed the first award, and said that the Ambassador Apartments ranked in the top 10 communities nationally for customer satisfaction, and in December 2023 it was #1 nationally. These awards are great, we love being recognized, but the most important recognition comes from customers like yourself. Thanks for your review, enjoy the coming spring.
