Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Pretty good experience

Pros

I lived here for a long time, the security made me feel safe (even if they are a little nosy at times) and when there was problem it was fixed right away. The walks in the neighborhood during the day are quiet and beautiful.

Cons

There is no change machine or card system in the laundry room so you need to bring your own quarters. The walls are pretty thin and so it does get a little noisy.
