Review from the web

Nice, clean, modern apartments. Haven’t had any maintenance issues so can’t comment on timeliness. The staff are easy to get a hold of and overall the place has been a pleasure to live in. Big windows, bright lights, faux wood floors, lots of storage space. Various layouts but of the ones I’ve seen they are all nice. No attached garage parking, but covered lot is nearby. Only qualms: can be very windy at times on the Main Street site, the light rail train on that side can be noisy when it brakes, can get a bit busy around minor league baseball (Bison) or Sabre’s games, but it’s not too bad. The heating and AC are powerful and quick, but the air vents are a bit on noisy side. All of the noise issues have kind of been suppressed by my brain after living here for a month so it doesn’t bother me anymore. No gym in the building unfortunately.
