Terrible don’t move here you’ll depply regret it. You can never get in touch with Management no one’s ever there. They will take your money and never speak to you again this place is by far the worst apartment complex ever gone too.

Move in sucked, but since then very pleasant. I like the staff. Other tenants not overly friendly but no one unpleasant, good facilities, VERY quiet rooms. Plenty of space for a one bedroom, nice view of the neighborhood, well-designed layout.

Apartments are very well furnished and maintained. Very quiet despite being next to the hospital. Staff is exceptionally friendly and helpful. The gym is more than adequate, the roof is amazing and the pool is fun. I truly love living here!
