    We do like it here. There are very good amenities and a great location. It is a bit expensive though. And little things seem to fester.....like no elevators to our 6th floor unit. You need an iPad or something to make the elevator go up for the last month and a half. So we cannot use those elevators.....very embarrassing. Please fix.
