Management?`

Lost our application days after submission. This included SS #'S credit info et al.
Elevator was working 30% of the time. Unannounced viewings while we were still in occupancy.
Lots of construction on upper floors.
Garage door was prone to failure.

Decent complex for the price. Great location

I have lived at the Thornton Apartments complex for a year and a half.
Pros:
Great maintenance team!
Quiet complex. - most of the time. A little bit of noise Friday and sat nights from the bar around closing time.
Walking distance to Bart./ central downtown location.
No issues with packages being left by UPS and FedEx.

Cons:
Old elevator that is not ADA compliant.
Ramp out front also not ADA compliant. -not a wheelchair accessible ramp.
It would be nice if they updated the front door...
intercom system.
Dryers- I always pay for extra time and dry everything at the highest heat setting to get clothing dry.
