I am glad Lyly is handling this building. The building is always clean and quiete.

Everything about this place sucks. The management, the company itself, the parking, the homeless shelter, the homeless people in the building, the cars getting broken into, literally EVERYTHING! I've only lived here a year and they went through 4 property managers, my car got broken into INSIDE the gated parking lot. Our locked up bike got stolen that was chained to the bike rack inside the garage within 2 weeks on moving in. This place absolutely blows

I've lived here for 4 years and I'll do my best to outline the pros and cons I've come across during that time.

Pros:
- Property looks good and is quite modern.
- Priced pretty well for what you get.
- Friendly maintenance staff.

Cons:
- The price is partially due to the location, being across from the homeless shelter, you'll have to deal with occasional homeless people shenanigans (following you in, yelling/fighting/loitering outside).
- The major and only true complaint; Lund Management.... It's been bad since I moved in 4 years ago but it has only gotten worse. You better hope that you don't need anything from them because you will need to call every day for a week and bombard them with emails in order to get a response. Even if you do get a hold of them, the chances of a follow-up on your issue is extremely low. It doesn't matter how important the inquiry it is; getting your mail/apartment key, acquiring garage access, sending you lease renewals, etc. From what I can tell, they have managers handling too many properties at once and they are unable to keep up. We typically only keep managers for 1 week to 2 months before they're gone. It really makes you feel like you're living on an island. Read More

I moved out of here recently and wanted to give my two cents so renters know what to expect when looking for a place to live. Overall, the experience was good, but there are some important things to take into account...
PROS:
-The actual apartment units are super updated, clean, and very spacious. The den area was perfect for having somewhere separate to study. Rent went up by quite a bit the past year, but still one of the largest/nicest apartments for the cost
- The maintenance guy, John, is... incredible. He went above and beyond in terms of timeliness to maintenance requests and making sure everything was fixed properly. I had an issue with my shower pump not working correctly, and he vouched to management to bring a plumber in to get it fixed after realizing the issue was complex and not something he could fix on his own.
- overall, all of my neighbors on my floor were super friendly and respectful of one another
- good location close to downtown and some restaurants within walking distance
CONS:
- not a safe place to live... it is located right next to the homeless shelter, so there are always individuals on drugs walking around and harassing people. Many of them shout and yell nonsense during the night which can be bothersome. Several cars parked on the street were broken into when I lived here. I also never felt safe enough to go for a walk by myself (even during the day) because of the location and occupants close by. Several people posted on the Facebook page about people being inside the garage and asking them for money or harassing them in some way. Also, there is a huge issue with non-residents getting into the building somehow even though the entrances are locked. Someone on drugs tried to kick my door down and break into my apartment (why I moved out), and a lot of times people were sleeping in the building in the hallways or trash chute. Sad situations but not the safest place to live.
- if you do not live in a unit facing the hotel, there is a truck route that passes right by the apartment which means you are hearing huge semis pass by constantly. It was incredibly loud, I had to sleep with ear plugs in even though I lived on the top floor.
- management was not responsive to emails or calls
