The apartment and balcony were really nice. A few staff members were always very friendly.

The overall negativity and poor handling of very, very minor situations by management and board members unfortunately, overshadow the pro's.

Take care of the SERIOUSLY DISGUSTING way too many for comfort, cockroach/water bug (whatever you want to call them)-situation. Seeing them every so often is normal if at all, but literally seeing them EVERY SINGLE DAY on the floors and in the elevators is unacceptable. Just be nice to your "shareholders". You don't have to be so militant about first time mistakes. Typically if you just bring it to someone's attention, they become aware and don't do whatever it is again. Humans101. Management shouldn't fraternize with board members/shareholders in the way they do here. It's like a coffee break room at an office where that one group of gossipers congregates to speak poorly on someone else who actually lives there. And you can hear every single word from the hallway without even trying. It's insulting. It's hurtful. And helps nobody. And we are all adults here. Unnecessary. Unprofessional. Oh, and if neighbors have issues w something another neighbor is doing the first thing to do SHOULD be as follows: Neighbor who has an issue w something another neighbor is doing should kindly ask the neighbor doing the thing causing the issue- to plz refrain from XYZ. 9X out of 10, this approach yields excellent results. I assure you. If the matter doesn't resolve after this, THAT is when one should put the problem in managements hands to handle and resolve the issue. The commonplace first course of action for example, if someone has music too loud (this wasn't an issue this is just an example) is to go directly to management to complain. Then the music listener gets a reprimanding phone call, an email, a text message, & a letter rudely threatening music listener if they don't lower music they will pay $5,367,374,390.00 in fines the next time it happens. Why not leave a little post it note on music listeners door? Or when you see each other in passing, just kindly ask if music can be lowered when listening next time. If the neighbor is not a jerk, 10 times outta 10, your problem will be SOLVED. But no, instead, whenever there's an issue it's never handled appropriately. It's this one tells that one and that one tells this one and that one' sends all these communications and then also what's about it from other staff members. I mean it's wildly mortifying to say the least. And all over things that literally would've been agreed to happily once attention was brought to whatever it was initially by the neighbor w the issue to begin with. So with all that being said, don't live here unless you want to feel like you're living the movie "Mean Girls". Yes, it is THAT ridiculous. And these are all older people mostly. So it's even more insane when you factor that in.
