Windows haven't been washed in 2.5 years. Garage doors have been non operational for months now. No transparency as to when either are getting fixed. Despite both of these, rent continues to increase on lease renewal by default without push back.

for the most part everything has been great. from staff to amenities. and a few has room for improvement. the sidewalk around the premises are unbearable to walk, they smell really bad because of the dog pee and poop. you guys need to use soap when power washing it. its been attracting a lot of flies.
