Great location. Great parking. Quiet neighbors. However, the blinds do not prevent lots of light at night. Need to work on this. The gym is nice to have. So far I've msinly used it for yoga. The whole move process was not kind to my back! The staff are friendly. And, helpful.

I have been living here for over 3 years and I like living here a lot! Great location and surprisingly quiet. The maintenance teams respond fast. The management team takes good care of the property as well. I also never felt unsafe here.

In a great neighborhood for a decent price. It’s not too expensive in comparison to other complexes in the same area. Roaches are a big problem. Pest control doesn’t get rid of them, if you can get pest control to even show up. Maintenance will lie about coming.
