Long-term residents report noticeable declines in building upkeep and resident support compared to previous management.
Management responsiveness and communication are inconsistent, with significant concerns about billing practices, security protocols, and staff professionalism.

Recent management transitions have created operational challenges, though some residents note improvements in responsiveness under current management.
The property offers well-regarded amenities including a rooftop with pool, jacuzzi, BBQ stations, gym, and sauna. Positive reviews consistently highlight cleanliness and maintenance of these spaces. However, recent management changes have led to concerns about amenity closures, reduced access hours (rooftop closing at 10 PM), parking security issues, and inconsistent common-area upkeep including hallway carpets and shared spaces.
