. "I'm currently staying here with a friend while waiting for a place at a nearby complex with 4-bedroom apartments, and honestly if it weren't for my desire for a lot of space over 2 floors I would probably stay here.\n\nA few cons:\n- The toilets need the button held down for a few seconds in order to flush\n- This place didn't have a microwave, although my friend was told he could have asked the office for one, so that likely isn't an issue for new residents\n- It would be nice to have clearer/larger building numbers, at first it's easy to get turned around in the complex and a little lost\n\nPros, from my short time here:\n- I had an issue today with one of the parcel boxes, one of the two lovely women from the front office helped me out immediately.\n- Both women I met in the front office today were lovely, really friendly and eager to help.\n- The 2 bedroom apartment I'm in is very, very large with high ceilings in the living area.\n- The washer and dryer in the unit are great\n- The rent is very reasonable (Take that with a grain of salt, I was in the Bay Area before this was a one-bedroom couldn't be found north of San Jose for less than $2k)\n- The buildings and complex are attractive and welcoming\n\nLastly, smoking - thank you for being a smoking complex. I know non-smokers complain a lot, and ideally you'd just have smokers upstairs and non-smokers downstairs - but as a smoker I'm happy to be somewhere that I don't have to deal with walking off the property in order to smoke. If you aren't a smoker you might not appreciate this, but it makes life happier, genuinely. I try hard not to bother anyone else with it, and I'm glad to be on the second floor, but yes, I'm certainly grateful that smokers aren't treated like lepers here. I can actually imagine living here if the larger place doesn't work out, or it turns out I'd like to downsize again sometime in the future.\n\nIn the month I've been here I can say I'd definitely recommend this place.\n\nThank you for the help today :-)"^^ . .
