| - I have been a resident for 1 year, and have had some good experiences and some bad experiences here.
First moving in, I was very annoyed by the $250 fee for having a cat along with $25 a month pet rent (the rent I expected). Mind you, if my cat does do any damage to the apartment the fee does NOT cover it. It is just extra income for them.
The first floor smells like garbage all summer because of the garbage shoots in every building. In my location, on the second floor, it is smell free. They roll the dumpsters out three times a week to the parking lot at 7:30 am. (if you are still sleeping you will be shaken out of bed because it is WAY louder than the leaf blowers on lawn care day). You will quickly learn where not to park on those days, as they pile the dumpster behind cars, and if you want to be to work on time you may have to move 3-5 dumpsters in order to back out.
As many other reviewers have pointed out, the water was a HUGE problem this winter. There were several months without consistent water / hot water. The office made up for this by taking water payment off our bill for 1 month (about $25).
On a positive note, My apartment is nice and cheap for the area. I love the location. I have had 15 maintenance requests in my year here (air conditioning broke 4 times, heating 3). The maintenance team is awesome and fixes the issue quickly. The pool is nice, but VERY crowded most weekends. The residents are quiet and respectful most the time and there are few kids living there.
I don't regret my decision to live here at this my life, (perfect location & price for my lifestyle) but am not renewing a full lease again.
