    When I first moved into the property my concerns were immediately addressed. I believe management changed and since then it has been failed promise after failed promise. Although the office staff are very nice, they have been unable to address my concerns with regard to parking, trash and debris build up and cameras.

    Not only is it always dirty with accumulated garbage, but there are also cockroaches circulating throughout the condominium. The pools are either under maintenance or dirty and unsupervised. There is no maintenance team available on Sundays, unknown charges in the rent, old and unmaintained equipment.

    also seen a lot of bad reviews on this place with cockroaches. I haven’t seen one, but I am a clean person. I also saw you saying that the trash cans are over full. The trash cans have no issues in my opinion. There is some minor plumbing issues, but that’s everywhere and they are on it and do fix it quickly.
