unhelpful staffterrible lighting
The women at the front desk were LESS than helpful. I was like an inconvenience, especially when trying to check in (WHO enjoys THAT?). the bedroom lighting was TERRIBLE. It was like a cave in there, not ideal when you are trying to, i don't know, read a book?

Fantastic Location and Great Amenities

prime locationgenerous apartmentgreat bonusdining option
The apartment size was generous and it was situated in a prime location. I found the gymnasium to be a great bonus (I used it every day). Parking was available right next door, a definite plus. Several dining options were also very close, right across the street from the park.
The bed was a little too soft for my personal taste.

great locationspacious roomshaky railrigid policy
the location was great! it was next door to a hotel with a restaurant. the rooms were spacious and clean.
the towel rails seemed shaky, so i didn't use them. they could do with someone checking and tightening them. i didn't like the policy that they charge even for a half-hour extension.

our apartment offered a fantastic view . the location proved convenient with its proximity to a variety of grocery stores. we had a amazing experience and especially appreciated the helpfulness and kindness of the staff.
i noticed some spiders near the pool area edges , and i think a little extra cleaning there would make a big difference.

I loved the apartment. It was spacious! the full kitchen includes a six-burner stove, oven, and refrigerator. i also enjoyed the awesome pool and the deck with a lake view. the room size was really great!
