My experience has not been bad. just wish the gates were consistently closed and bus ran more frequently during the school year and a little later during the weekdays especially during evening exams.

Living experience isn't bad. It can be a hassle trying to get maintenance problems resolved; for my AC and refrigerator it took several visits for them to be fixed because they needed to be replaced. Not sure if this is a problem with the maintenance team themselves, or if they are limited by what management allows them to do if it's too expensive. Gym is very nice but some of the equipment has been non-functional for weeks, including 2 of 3 treadmills. Recent renovations have been great, and... every staff member i've ever spoken to has been very nice.

Overall, good location, amenities, and living space. Maintenance is great and very responsive. A bit expensive for student living this far away from campus but the bus is generally consistent.
