    5/5 Luis on May 3, 2024

    Honestly, ever since I moved here I have had no complains about the place. The apartment and location are both really nice. If anything, an elevator would be greatly appreciated. I've never had to deal with excesive noise. Snow is removed as much as possible during/after a winter storm. Fitness center is actually okay if you aren't looking for a specific work-out. Staff has always been kind and respectful to me and my girlfriend, and they are usually here to resolve any appliance-related issue in a timely manner.
