Got to this later than I meant to, but I loved living at this place. Stayed for two and a half years. Great landlord, maintenance was never an issue. They were flexible with me about extending my lease-- very little hassle living there. Other tenants were generally friendly, and when problems arose, people were generally comfortable talking with each other. The landlord handled neighbor issues respectfully. This place was perfect for me. The only reason I left was a job opportunity in another city!

The apartment is in great condition, and the landlord is always attentive if there is an issue. They have raised the rent, but they also have made nice renovations and improvements.

I'm writing this review much later than I intended but overall my family and I enjoyed the year we spent at this apartment complex. Our neighbors were friendly for the most part (there's always 1 or 2 obnoxious people but that's life), the rent is affordable, there is a laundry room on site ($1.50 per load), heat and water is included in the rent, and it's pet friendly (cats preferred but dogs are ok). In Philly, it can be extremely difficult to find 1 of those features let alone all of them in one place. During our time there, maintenance came in to fix a few issues - some due to us contacting the landlord but there were other times that management was proactive to email us ahead of time about preventive maintenance or to fix a problem that popped up while we were at work. Parking in the area can be a little difficult in the winter as front of the apartment complex is on an emergency street meaning you cannot park there if it snows but luckily you can park on one of the side streets. Ultimately, the main reason we moved out is because we were looking for more space and a backyard for our dog. The process was fairly straight forward and we gave the 30 days' notice required under our month to month contract. We received our deposit back in a timely fashion.
