Chelsea heights is safe, secure, private, and comfortable. I appreciate the layout of the building and the overall atmosphere. I would say that the floors in the hallways could be cleaned... but it's not a huge deal.

Very satisfied

I just moved in. So far I like it. Kari, the leasing office manager, was quick to respond to my questions and concerns. She quickly resolved my parking question and helped me with setting up payment online.
