The complex is quiet and I've never had any problems with neighbors. Parking is crazy, but I think that's the norm these days.
The staff here is amazing and always so friendly. The ladies are amazingly helpful and always happy to do whatever they can to help.
The area is currently undergoing major construction, so I expect improvements soon.
