    I really have enjoyed my time at the real so far. Very nice staff and great location. Nice neighbors. I don't think ive had a bad experience yet here. I think the only thing I'd like to change is a new trash system rather than leaving it out by our door. But, most people do properly take care of theirs bins, its just the smell.

    Closely connected to other businesses, like Central Market & Highland Village Mall. The property remains clean and well maintained by their service folks.

    I love it here because I love this neighborhood. I love being next door to Central Market and within walking distance of everything I need. This is an older community, I have had to compromise quality for price per square foot. But it is a compromise that I needed and wanted to make. Aging of the building and appliances is evident but not unbearable. The pool areas are not resort style set ups and don’t have the modern convenience I’m used to, but they are clean, quiet and are not always down ...
    for repair. I love the gym, it is modern and full of everything you might need. I live the yoga room, the spin room and the game room cafe. I wish they had a dedicated team that coordinates community events but the staff do their best and everyone is friendly and attentive. Overall, I am blessed with my experience here. Like anywhere it’s not perfect, but it’s perfect for me.

    Office leasing staff is great. Sometimes there has to be multiple requests on the same maintenance issue for it to be resolved. Apartment is infested with small roaches. Water coming out of faucet has a bad odor. Had water leaks under sink, this will be the 4th time. Dog park on Gael side is absolutely disgusting. Needs turf like the Essex side! Price is just not worth it here.

  • Not the best property

    February 13, 2024
    Moved in about a year ago, got my wheels stolen. Property did not do anything about it. They said they would give us updates from footage, there was no updates. Dog park is disgusting, and muddy with poop everywhere. They have turf at the Essex side but they do not do it here. Tried to bring it up with them they do not care to look into it. Sinks always leaking, water smells weird. We get all types of bugs that come in, but worst of all small roaches. No matter how clean your apartment is, just ...
    expect it. The only plus side is the gym, and central market just a few steps away! Other than that, learned my lesson on renting older properties. Definitely not worth the price.

    I have a sunny, perfectly situated one bedroom that permits me to see all the goings on in the street. The apartment is delightfully cozy and warm for my cat and I. The kitchen functions extremely well for my needs. I can't wait to hang some art, have more plants and a little time to enjoy some leisure activities. The management takes care of any maintenance problems really quickly and the men are so thoughtful and kind. I like it here.
