Reasonable Value

Six months in, reasonably satisfied with my residence.

Good if you don't need anything

I've lived here for a few months and it's been a little off since move in. Overall, I think the staff both in office and maintenance are nice but understaffed. I've had several problems since move in, some of which I was told would be fixed before move in, that do not get fixed unless a consistently ask about it. Having only been here for a little bit I don't really have a lot of faith in being helped when I ask for it. I think the team is really good at selling the place but doesn't follow through once you actually move in. Don't get me wrong, I'm in no rush to move, the place could certainly be a lot worse. I just would've liked to have known before moving in that living here is only really good as long as you don't need the office for anything.

Overview

My experience has been overall quite positive! Staff are nice, maintenance is good, amenities usually work as intended, and when they dont, maintenance is good at fixing them. Overall a positive experience so far!

Wouldn't recommend

Wonderful place to live. Too high a price for what you're getting, terrible staff, overcharge for anything, and if they can make money off of you, they don't care how it affects your life.
