September 6, 2023Ive lived many places including 15 years in my own condominium. But that falls into second place after living here for a year. The building is very quiet, and well insulated. Even from insects! This is amazing as every place Ive lived, if it doesnt have roaches, has flyjng insects, that come in or silverfish, and / or centipedes... and I hate insects in my home. That is for me a major reason for my contentment here. Furthermore, neither management nor maintenance enters my unit without ...permission, and I dont get that 'feeling' that they do. And the cleanliness and trash removal is fairly well maintained. The trashroom however sometimes gets cluttered but seems to be addressed quickly. I am happy to call this place home.Property Manager Responded
September 6, 2023Thank you for taking the time to complete this kind review. We are excited you are happy to call The Watson your home and we hope to continue to meet your standards. We will continue to keep on top of the cleanliness! Please let us know if you have any issues in the future and we will work our hardest to resolve whatever concerns you may have. We appreciate you letting us know that we are meeting your expectations.

March 6, 2023I really enjoy living here. It is quiet, well maintained and staff is unusually accessible and courteous. One of my concerns before moving here was if there were pests, specifically, roaches. In my previous apartment, there were occasional roaches, and frequent silverfish and centipedes in my bed! This made going to bed scary. This building must be very well designed because in my 9 months here, I have not seen any of the aforementioned or any insects!!! I sleep peacefully now.Property Manager Responded
July 3, 2023Thank you for taking the time to review The Watson. We appreciate your kind words. We will continue to monitor any insects entering our building and respond immediately. If you are ever in need, we provide monthly extermination services for the building and can call on emergency services. Thank you again!
