I moved to these apartments from another state after moving for work and lived here for one year. I chose them mainly because of the price for a renovated 1-bedroom and the location, including the Lightrail station across the street, walking distance to grocery stores, and 1-mile drive to I-77. Because of these things, it was a comfortable apartment for my needs.
The ladies in the front office, including Andrea and Gisela, were always nice and easy to talk to. I had no logistical problems upon move-in or move-out.
However, and this is a big "however", the apartments are old, having built in the 80s if I am not mistaken. This age shows in the building structure and design (180-degree-turn stairs, no exhaust fan in bathrooms, etc.). Floor and wall condition was the most obvious to me, as I was able to hear my upstairs neighbors walking lightly over every creak and moan of the ceiling and the windows sometimes let through water in heavy downpours. Water was turned off three times a month for a day a piece almost like clockwork for "continued maintenance" for a problem that it seemed they could not fix properly. Maintenance was not very timely in work requests, and even when they did show up they usually did a job 50% of the way through and had to be called back through another request.
All in all, I was comfortable here for a year but eventually realized that I need a newer apartment building in a quieter area. Talk to Gisela in the front office and she will always be willing to help out with any issue.
