These people suck. They immediately fired all security and front desk staff, closed the pool early, and haven’t fixed any issues. Horrible management company.

The amenities are great, but I’m a bit disappointed that the rooftop pool closes at 8pm, including the entire pool area, which has the best views of the city. 8pm is still sunny!
