    I've been living in this unit for quite some time. I've seen staff come and go. I love the new color paint for the corridors. Would be nice to have matching entrance of the building done as well as its currently outdated. I just want to give a personal shout out to Forrest and Esteban as they are some of the friendliest and most professional staff that the build has had in a long time. They always great you by name and are always in a great upbeat mood. Great addition to the building. Thank you ...
    for all that you do. The building looks great!

    I moved in to this apartment in June. It's very affordable being in the downtown area and the management is excellent. The maintenance is done giving prior notices and even if there is a construction happening around, we get an email from the manager. It's all been pleasant till now and I hope of continuing my stay for years to come.

    Love the convenient location, stellar staff but those who make noise late at night, have their pets pee on hallway carpets and litter are a nuisance
