It's a nice place to live. The only things really negative I got to say is the trash chute doesn't always work and I also hate that fire alarm, being that I'm neurodivergent. Other than that it's got a nice trail and it's like within walking distance of the movie theater.

The years have been great here. The parking garage is very nice especially since it generally means no shoveling snow. It's got great amenities, and I can simply walk to the movie theater. I know it doesn't happen often but I sure hate that fire alarm and how it can have those false alarms, and it's especially hard on someone like me with Asperger's with sensitivity to certain sounds and the flashing lights.

I enjoy living here at Residences at Government Center. The only few problems I have are the fire alarm and how it has a tendency to go off in the middle of the night. As someone with Asperger's the alarm is hell for me and especially fries my nerves. I also I don't like how the trash chutes don't always work. Other than that I like how we have package lockers especially so I don't have to worry about my packages getting stolen.

Thank you so much for your review. It's very rewarding to hear that you are enjoying your time with us. To our knowledge, our trash chutes have had very minimal issues and repairs were fixed for them immediately. If there are any trash chutes that continue to give you issues in the future, please let us know. We also apologize that our fire alarms have disturbed you from time to time in the past. Each year, we are required by the fire department to test the fire alarms in our building for safety purposes. Our staff has done our best to communicate with our residents when we have to complete our annual fire alarm testing, to help them prepare for the day. Please contact our office at your earliest convenience to discuss your concerns specifically with us and to notify us directly if this occurs in the future. Thanks again and we hope that you continue to love your experience at Residences at Government Center.
