    Review

    Everything about this place seems built for convenience and walkability. The reviewer paints a vivid picture of a location where almost everything you could need is within a short stroll. A block away are the grocery store, hardware store, fitness club, liquor store, and a cluster of restaurants. For anyone who doesn't own a car, the property is portrayed as an ideal choice - everything you might want or need is right at your doorstep. Beyond the practical conveniences, the area is described as absolutely gorgeous, with an abundance of parks and paved trails that invite residents to enjoy the outdoors. The review emphasizes that the people are incredibly friendly, creating a welcoming community atmosphere. On top of that, the management is credited with being excellent and notably quick to address any issues that arise, which would typically reassure prospective tenants.

    Yet beneath the rosy surface there's a thread of serious concern that runs through the account. The reviewer recounts a troubling experience in which they were accused of smoking in their unit. The evidence cited is a single picture, which, somewhat confoundingly, the reviewer notes was actually taken in the community room rather than in their own residence. When they contacted Kari, a staff member, the response shifted in a way that left them perplexed: first, the photo was dismissed as a shadow, and then the explanation shifted to the walls being dirty and long-unwashed. The reviewer claims there's something "funny" going on inside the building, suggesting a pattern of inconsistent or evasive explanations rather than straightforward resolution.

    Compounding the dispute, the reviewer mentions having performed a home mold test that yielded a concerning result. They assert that the management will not take corrective action to address the underlying issue, instead implying a superficial fix. The sense conveyed is one of frustration with what they perceive as a refusal to undertake proper remediation. The mold concern isn't just a one-off complaint; it's framed as a systemic problem that the building management is failing to address, despite the test output and the potential health implications.

    The tension between the property's attractive, neighborly environment and the alleged handling of serious problems creates a complicated impression. The reviewer concedes that the management team can be responsive and efficient in normal circumstances, but argues that when it comes to deeper issues like mold and unfounded accusations, the responses have been insufficient or evasive. The remarks about Kari - both the initial denial of the accusation and the subsequent explanations about dirty walls - add a personalization to the conflict, making it feel less like a procedural issue and more like a management dynamic that feels inconsistent to residents.

    In the closing, the reviewer offers a stark verdict that contrasts with the initial praise of location and management. They express a guarded wish for anyone considering renting there: "Good luck to anyone who rents from these people." The review ends on a note that seems almost paradoxical - an appreciation for the peaceful, friendly community and the appealing surroundings, tempered by a strong fear that health and maintenance concerns will be brushed aside rather than properly resolved. The reference to peace and calmness at the end underscores the emotional mix: a place that could be idyllic in theory, but in practice invites serious questions about trust, responsiveness, and the willingness to address real problems.
