We moved in just two weeks ago, and it's already been a nightmare. The apartment was absolutely filthy on arrival, the carpet reeks of urine, like it hadn’t been cleaned in years. The dishwasher doesn’t work, which is just one of many things wrong here and many things were broken. This place was clearly not cleaned or inspected before we moved in. It’s unacceptable to rent out units in this kind of condition. We’ve reported the issues, but getting any real help or response has been painfully slow, if at all. Things get fixed slowly and it's not even maintenance's fault. It’s incredibly frustrating to spend good money on a place that feels neglected and unsanitary from day one. Definitely not what was advertised. Avoid this place unless you want to spend your first month cleaning and chasing down management to do the bare minimum.

The City is worth every nickel of dollars I pay to live here. I love the flexibility of the Smart Home feature and I love the almost perfect gym! And I have to say I am grateful for the coffee machine. My only but is the carpet in the hallways needs to be paid attention to every now and then before the unthinkable happens
