Great Place

I lived here from 2003-2007 and lived in both an apartment and a townhouse and don t really have any complaints, so I ll respond to the complaints I ve read here. As for the parking - you can write guest passes that are good for up to 2 days or go to the leasing office and get ones good for longer. Towing only happens between 11PM and 7AM. None of the units are far from George C Marshall drive - where you can park on the street for free for as long as you want. You can get a reserved spot for $30. However, even when I was in the apartment in the middle of the complex, you could find a spot within sight of the apartment. The leasing agency people have been very nice, right from the first time I came here. I ve never had a problem with any of them. Maintenance has been great. Yeah so some of them aren t native English speakers - but they re kind, respectful and eager to help. I once came home to find water slowly dripping from the ceiling and they were there within 10 minutes fixing the problem (condensation on the pipe). They came and changed the air filter when I was having bad allergies only about 2 months after they changed it when we had moved in. They even came late at night when the toilet handle broke and was able to call the 'late night' person to come when the doorknob stopped working. When we were deciding on the townhouse, the leasing agent was warning us about how small the kitchen was. When I walked into the townhouse the first time, I couldn t believe how big it was. It s an average-sized kitchen and although it s narrow, it s also quite long. In the apartment, the kitchen was ok - my main problem was there were only two TINY drawers that wouldn't really hold much. The living room is huge - we could put up partitions and make a whole extra bedroom. I saw slugs outside last October (I think they liked my pumpkins) at the townhouse. In our apartment, we did get a couple cockroaches, but keep in mind, we were in the apartment for three years, so living next to so many people, that's fairly good. We also started to get some grasshoppers around August 2007, but that also happens from time to time anywhere you live. Some people have complained about the price - well, I don t mind as my last place that was (literally) around the corner had cockroaches. The pool is nice and they sometimes have a pool party complete with a ton of food the last regular day the pool was open. As for people not picking up after dogs, my place is right in front of one of the dog walk areas and I have only noticed someone having left a present once. In the townhouse, I couldn't really hear the neighbors. In the apartment, we were on a middle floor, on a corner and could hear our one neighbor's music and the neighbor above us who seemed to like to vacuum the bedroom at 10PM while I was trying to sleep. The leasing office people have always been friendly, and I really liked it when they started holding packages for residents.
