The Thorntons a good location with nice windows/views. Close to a lot of good parts of town. But be aware of the show room they show you.. it looks way better than the one you get!

I have loved my time at the Thornton. The building is quiet and well maintained; the utilities are very inexpensive; the neighborhood is wonderful.

All in all, my first impressions of living at The Thornton have been overwhelmingly positive. Excellent location, rent rates that are very reasonable, and a clean well maintained set of buildings all serve it well. The buildings are all studio apartments (converted from hotel rooms), so it's better suited for individuals or couples. Cyclists and pet owners will especially fit in here. Definitely recommended!

Unfortunately I had heard some negative things regarding the building's lack of management, but that has not been my experience at all. I've noticed there are a lot of different faces working in the office. (but they have all been very professional, friendly, and promptly returned my calls). We are loving our new location and how dog friendly the whole area is! Can't wait for all of the amenities in our building to become available to us! So excited to use the dog washing area when it reopens!

Poor security. Common areas frequently a mess. The laundry situation is a horror show. The management doesn't know what they are doing.
