    5/5 N.K on Jun 23, 2023

    I have been living here for two years, and it has been very smooth, clean and safe. Everyone is so friendly, maintenance is always on top of things and they front office always has nice small events where they cater snacks/food for the residents. Pool is always clean and gym is great.
