Reviews from the web

Showing 9 highest rated

We are not tenants, but we toured the building. We found the building and the 2 bedroom unit we saw to be beautiful and well put together. The community room and the indoor bicycle parking are perfect for Cleveland winters. We also found the leasing staff of Alaijah Vaughn and Timothy Lee, to be well organized, incredibly professional and honest in answering our questions.

Have lived here for almost two years. Has been a great experience thus far! Maintenance always responds extremely quick, management has been great, apartment is pet friendly and everyone has been super kind to my fur baby. The complex puts on fun events every so often as well. The best part for myself has been the heated garage, so if I get called into the hospital in the middle of the night I don't have a cold car, especially in the winter! Plus, for those in the medical field, the Dexter is located within close range to the major hospital locations. Finally, I love my balcony and the views of the Guardian's stadium and watching the fireworks.
