Nice but Annoying

This is a very typical apartment experience. I have lived here for one year now. The community is excellent, and I like the location. Having occasional community events, a pool, a workout room, and other amenities. The staff have been very nice and accommodating and always have a friendly attitude. There have been few issues since moving in. However, Having to pay for services we don't need (i.e., valet trash and smart home) is annoying. I can see how some residents may benefit from these services, so I understand offering them, but requiring them seems silly. The internet situation isn't the greatest, but it works okay for game consoles, and there have been complaints from other community members on the member forum. I have to reset my internet frequently to get the wired connection to work (plugged directly into the router), and since "upgrading" our internet in the last two months or so, we have experienced slower wireless connection speeds despite paying the same amount. The carpets in the hallway have been recently cleaned but were stained with many pet accidents for a long time. Finally, despite many emails from Cadence staff members, some residents continue not picking up after their pets, leaving piles in the grass. Overall, I like the apartment and the location, and I will continue to live here for now.

Beautiful place to live!

I have lived at Cadence for a week and love it here! The smart technology and valet trash features have been really convenient. The staff are quick to respond to my questions and maintenance has been super fast! There are grocery stores, restaurants, and gas stations all within walking distance which is convenient. Can't wait to get fully settled and enjoy my time here at Cadence.
