| - I rent a place here as I have business in Phoenix from time to time. We've got a two bedroom second floor which is nicely and neutrally appointed. There are two and three story buildings, so if you are really irritated with foot stompers, you need a place on the top floor. If I had to do it again, I'd get a 2br in one of the two story buildings, but they are really desirable and hard to come by. Hiking up three flights of stairs with five cases of beer and a Jimmy Johns is simply not my idea of a good time.
Other reviewers are correct - the place is loud and even the slightest noise from upstairs is quite apparent. I've never met the upstairs family, but from the weekend hollering, the spouse is named Lisa and the husband is Bill. Their two young kids are "Goddammit" and "YouIdiot". I think that's just what you get when you live in a place like this. We use ear plugs and a white noise generator and try to tiptoe in the morning in favor of letting our downstairs neighbors get some shut-eye.
The pool area and gym are great. The amenities in general are first rate and the staff is knowledgeable, accommodating and very helpful in every sense of the word. There is even a sand volleyball court as well as good quality gas BBQ stations throughout. Good grass areas, and the snarling dogs of death love the area cuz there are lots of dogs and a well enforced leash rule. The common area also has room for parties and such and it is loads of fun to watch all the little kid birthday parties.
Inside of the apartment, the wood-like floors are a nice touch and the granite counters are sweet. Tons of storage, nice balcony and good size bedrooms make the place first rate. Now for the bad news.
The clientele here are very nice but there are a few bad apples who remove a star from the rating. Smokers litter the grounds and the stairwells with cigarette butts. They are mostly inconsiderate cretins. I wish there was a no smoking policy here. It is really gross in some areas. You'd think that a $1400 dollar monthly rent would bring a more socially responsible group of people in here.
There is also dog poop everywhere!! Some dog owners didn't get the memo on owner responsibility for their doggies bodily functions. I hope when they get back to their home planet, they get assigned the job of cleaning up Jaba the Hutt's craps. It is so bad that management hires a guy to go around and clean up all the dog poop that is left behind by inconsiderate and socially unaware fifth grade refugees. I mean, come on people, your mom doesn't live here.
It is quite loud here at night on the weekends and drunk 30 somethings regularly yuk it up in the hot tub until 2am. Bad way to start a race weekend after 4 hours of sleep. BUT, most folks here are nice and friendly and considerate. It is close to the freeway and safe as it can be. Mall is a stones throw away and good eating places abound.
You could pick a way worse place for the same cash for sure.
