What We Found

Many reviewers praise the leasing team, especially a leasing agent named Elijah, for patient, clear tours. The grounds and pool look good, and the location draws kind words. Several longtime residents say upkeep and maintenance slipped after management changed.

Recent complaints center on slow repairs, unanswered phone calls, and elevators that often break. A few reviewers mention roaches in hallways and a loud garage gate. Reviews are split, and the most critical ones say the 5-star reviews are not from residents.

Staff, especially Kristin, Karen, and Ty, earn consistent praise for warmth and helpfulness during tours and move-ins. The property itself feels clean and well-kept, with strong Midtown location and amenities drawing residents back. But operational issues dog the experience: elevators break repeatedly, garage ceilings leave residue on cars, and most seriously, multiple residents report theft with limited management support or camera footage review, leaving some feeling unsafe despite the advertised security system. Review topics note the helpful staff and appealing amenities, yet the mix of five-star loyalty and one/two-star safety alarms (70% five-star, 24% one/two-star) reflects a sharp divide in experience.

Reviewers praise the leasing team, especially Nona, and quick maintenance and a clean building. Two recent 1-star reviews describe loud music from a club a few blocks away, heard through the walls until 3 am. Rent is also called high.

Residents who post reviews mostly describe friendly staff and a clean, well-kept property. Several name the leasing and management team, and say maintenance fixes problems quickly. Reviews are almost all five-star, with few specific complaints. Reviewers also praise the spacious units, tall ceilings, and pool. Some mention the hallway carpets and recent upgrades around the complex. Many reviews are short, so the detail on specific services is thin.
