“The ammenities compared to other apartments in the area are not the greatest. This apartment complex in particular is near a hospital and a Jets Pizza. The hospital being so close, we hear all of the ambulances. The Jets attracts so many people to our block making it hard to enter the garage and the noise of the people is unpleasant.”
