The property has experienced management transitions that appear to have affected service consistency and deposit handling practices.

Moveout fees and deposit deduction practices have been a source of frustration for several residents.
Residents report significant concerns about building cleanliness and maintenance standards. Common issues include inadequate cleaning of shared spaces, unfinished finishes upon move-in (such as unsanded drywall patches), and inconsistent upkeep across the property.
