    • Property Manager Responded

      June 12, 2024
      Our team works hard to create five-star homes for all our residents, so it’s disappointing to see your negative perception of our community. Keeping our property clean is a community effort, and while our team does all they can to maintain our grounds, we also rely on residents to pick up after themselves. We are unaware of any pest issues in your apartment. Therefore, please reach out to our team so we can work with you to find a lasting solution to the problem. We truly want each of our residents to enjoy their homes to the fullest and would appreciate the opportunity to speak with you further about your concerns.

  • Dirty apartments

    September 16, 2022
    These apartments are very dirty. There is trash and foul smell everywhere in the building. Dumpster is not cleaned everyday and it piles up garbage for a few days and creates smell. In the hallways also there is trash which is not cleaned for weeks and lifts are always dirty.

  • Poor maintenance, noise problem all day, mad management at the leasing office, HUGE cockroach problem

    May 18, 2017
    It is no mystery why they don't even have a 2 start rating. Poor maintenance. Noise problem all day (can hear creaking and voices all day). When I moved in they had a HUGE cockroach problem. But boric acid powder can address that, no thanks to the management. Bad management at the leasing office. They are rude and would blame you for their mistakes. A bigger issue is the damage deposit. At least my experience they rip innocent tenants off on the damage deposit and use it as an excuse to do ...
    desperately needed normal maintenance on the apartment. Read the other reviews and you will understand what I mean. I suggest you only rent from them as a last resort, and then think twice even then.

  • Worst apartment

    September 28, 2013
    I would give zero stars if there was an option. 1) Manager is very rude, arrogant and a cheater 2) Apartment is full of roaches 3) Elevator doesn't work properly 4) Very old building 5) The walls and roof are not sound proof If you move out, they will charge you for everything mentioned in the agreement (at least $1000). I paid a security deposit of $1200. When I moved out of the apartment to a different state, the manager inspected the house informed deducting around $200. They did not send ...
    any payment for 3 months. When he sent the statement, he billed me for everything mentioned in the agreement for more than $1000 along with incorrect rent calculations. When I pointed out the mistakes, he agreed to look into the matter and call me back. I have called them at least 50 times till date without any return calls. After 15 months, I am still calling them and I am not able to speak to the manager. If someone is looking to challenge them in court or take them to small claims courts, please let me know.
