Noise and thin walls come up
Residents frequently mention noise traveling between apartments.
Many reviews describe thin walls or floors, with neighbors above or next door carrying through loud footsteps, music, or daily activities. A few residents also say the community can be quiet and that they rarely hear neighbors, but the concern about sound transfer still shows up repeatedly. Several reviews connect the issue to layout or apartment placement, like choosing a higher floor to reduce certain kinds of noise.

Others describe maintenance as delayed for weeks, requiring multiple visits, or failing to resolve recurring problems like leaks or repairs after requests. Several reviews also note health or comfort impacts when issues linger, especially when ceiling leaks lead to mold concerns.
