I visited my friends at an open house months ago and left a five star review, it couldn't be more different there now. What a horrible turn of events. The new ownership and management are incredibly rude. Imagine an adult professional not being able to introduce themselves, they walk right past you. I saw it with my own eyes on my visit today. The magic that flowed through this building is dead. Prepare for an exodus. The people running this place should be ashamed of themselves!

My friend brought me along to the Open House last month after showing me all the fun on their Facebook page. Seeing everything in person did not disappoint. I was particularly impressed with the yoga session taking place with the people living there, the turn out and expertise with which it was taught. Honestly it was a highlight along with the food, these are 2 reasons we are now considering this move. What a beautiful building and it's filled with friendly, caring staff, you can see it in their interactions with the tenants who seemed to remain a priority even with this event happening around their day. Very impressive.
