Looking forward to using the pool in the summer. Irresposible dog owners and speeding cars in the parkade still remain a concern at the property.

Pros: Great neighborhood, quiet neighbors, feels safe within the premises. Some events every now and then to build that sense of community.

Neutral: Maintenance is usually quick to respond, but some cant communicate well as a number cant speak English well.

Cons: No business center but front desk helps out with print jobs. Not ideal for sensitive documents though.
