Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

I've lived in this building for years and I can confidently say that it has been amazing. (if I could give more than 5 stars I would) The doormen, maintenance and management team have made living in this building delightful. Terence and Yash (Malaysia too), I've known them for years and it's always a joy to see and chat with them! The maintenance team are hardworking, the friendliest and kindest people I've met and very helpful. Alexandra, from management, has been lovely and extremely helpful. They're like a family away from my own :') I can go on with praises but I shall stop here. Thank you guys for being such an awesome and helpful community!

the concierge team at this building is AMAZING. 24/7 I can always count on the concierge team. Terrence (but better know as T from my roommates and I) is not only a heat fan which makes him an automatic winner but also an amazing human being that makes living in this apartment building even better.
