    Love it here!

    I've been loving my time here over the past year. I have a 1-bedroom that is spacious in all the right places and, for an apartment, probably the coolest bathroom I've ever had! Never thought I'd have a need for heated floors or a tv built into the bathroom mirror, but now that I have them, I can't imagine living without! The attached walkin closet is super convenient too. It seems like some of the bad reviews here are from years ago... I never really had a problem with my neighbors. There is a new team in the office, too. They are friendly and helpful!
