This place is a real upgrade from out last apartment! We lived at the Wellington before which wasn’t bad at all, we just needed a change. Having a balcony is great for working from home.

The Maxwell was a decent place to live for two years. Very convenient location with everything and anything within a few steps. The price for rent is very high per square foot. Especially if you have vehicles, or animals, as there are extra monthly f...

0 communication or details from management on the never ending construction from the complex next door. Starts at 7 am and goes all day. Sawing concrete, moving rocks. None of it makes sense and no one has any answers.

Daily construction at the complex next door starting at 7:00 am every day. If you work from home, the Maxwell is an absolute nightmare. You can’t open windows, balcony doors with out being graced by loud, unexplained, never ending, outdoor construc...

Not a safe place to weather an infectious disease outbreak. Nobody here wears facial coverings. There are no rules governing getting in the elevator with others. No buy-in on social distancing at all.

Love the apartment and neighborhood a lot. Only complaint is that walks are very thin and I can hear my neighbors - other than that it’s been a very pleasant experience!

Everything is great I just feel rent is very expensive for the size of apartment I have. Other than that the amenities and staf are always perfect.

It's been good, just a little pricey. Would consider moving due to high rent for 630 sq ft. Other than that, the apartment has a great location, gym, kept clean, nice appliances, but still too expensive.
