    It’s noisy. But everything else is ok. Staffs are nice

    3/5 Rachel A. on Dec 21, 2022

    I've been here for 2yrs and starting my third year I have a big issue with the carpet in the hall' ways. Maybe you should change to a cleaner vinyl surface it would make the areas look better when showing units etc. to many people drag their garbage, I have seen it with my own eyes not to mention dogs peeing on the carpet. Also, there are many people in the summer that abuse the fact that they live here and invite 10 plus guests to the pool which is not right at all! Cars driving like they are in a race going down or up. It's ridiculous they WHIP through the parking garage.
