“Location is fairly convenient. Cleanup crews blow trash into entrances. Noisy apathetic neighbors that do not care about policies. Maintenance guys are timely and accommodating. Management is ok depending who you talk to. Im still annoyed about paying a facility fee with the pool closed for more than a year. That was a big selling point.”
