“It is a pleasure to live here at the Rivue. It is quiet, friendly and safe. It is nearby shopping centers but not too close where you're not bothered by street noise and traffic. Management is super supportive and quick to address any concerns. If there is one thing I'd ask to improve it would be to ensure cleanliness and maintenance within the stairway entry and trash bins. It would also be appreciated to have elevators for easy and comfortable access between floors. Overall I love it here!”
