To respond to the response below:
I was scheduled to see the apartment with Daniel on 5/9/2014.
I am not sure from my phone if the time zone updated, so either 3PM or 5PM likely. I won't post the phone number I have for privacy reasons, but would be happy to share it if you want to reach out to me directly. You were able to search if I had see the appointment, so you should have my contact information.

I would strongly discourage anyone from living here. It is NOT downtown living. It is NOT a luxury building. Management does NOT act in the best interest of the tenants.
Parking alone should be a reason not to live here, why build a building without enough parking?
I am writing this review as someone who stayed there a significant amount, helped a friend move in, and signed a lease - but ultimately decided not to stay there.
The small hallways are the first thing I noticed when I went in the building which gave it a college dorm feel. Passing someone in the hall is uncomfortable as an experience.
Once in the apartments, it is clear that corners were cut. awkward angles, and weirdly placed support columns make the spaces difficult to work with. Cheap cabinetry and appliances that are not well set only add to the cheap look.
In the unit I stayed in, no door on the closet which is less than ideal - and a very low entry to the closet - felt like I was entering into a cave whenever I needed something, a dark and unwelcoming cave.
For the new unit we were going to rent, it was not accurately described by the floor plan. Second bedroom was barely usable as an office. Two large columns were in the room. The floorplan showed a bed in the room that would not be possible given the columns and door opening into the room.
Terrace wrapped directly in front of this bedroom, but without it's own access suggesting again that this would be better served as an office than a bedroom.
Washer and Dryer were not were identified on the floor plan.
Management is difficult to work with. When contacted about concerns and issues, they become petty and it feels like you are dealing with a child. I raised issues with the floorplan of the unit we rented (sight unseen - I did try to see it, but the individual didn't show the first time and I don't reside in Madison) not matching the actual floor plan.
I haven't decided on my course of action. The company wants a re rental fee despite having lost no income as it was re rented prior to us moving in. When I asked for them to pull in their employee who rented it initially to us, i was told they no longer work there as if that is a legitimate reason to not answer a customer question. That is MPM in a nutshell in my experience.
I have contacted the Madison Renters group to find out about the legality of withholding an amount. I do know that having a clause in a lease that is against the law is not legal.
