It’s a great location and the amenities and staff are very nice. It is a bit noisy from traffic noise in apartments facing the west side. I would recommend it to anyone who wants a nice, accessible place in the city.

Great location, but we have had a ton of issues from a maintenance standpoint and had to put in so many requests to eventually get hot water and it just took forever. Renewing the lease process has been difficult as well.

The building is beautiful, the staff members are very friendly and the amenities are wonderful. I’m hoping to receive a notification soon that the outdoor pool is heated. I think I was told it was heated 9 months of the year. The frequency of trash pick up from the trash rooms could be improved. It tends to pile up quickly.
