I love living here, the management is great at addressing any problems that arise quickly. They just replaced all of the laundry rooms and they are a lot better! For the price, you get a lot out of this place a great parking lot and small but decent gym. I live in a two bedroom and the living room is quite spacious. I also like feeling safe here with the gated parking lots and key fob access doors.

Don’t live here.
The building is old and rarely cleaned. The washing/drying machines are small, don’t work properly, and cost $1.75 per machine. The new management will find any reason to charge you for miscellaneous things. Maintenance men chain smoke outside in the parking lot every day and linger around the windows to peoples apartments. They have done minimal renovations and increased everyone’s rent, including individuals whose apartments haven’t yet received the updates.

AWFUL
Dirty place. Mouse poop under appliances when I moved in. New management making no meaningful changes. The mail situation is a joke. Mail sits on the ground, often stolen. Homeless people sleeping in the halls during summer. Ridiculously poor snow removal in the winter. Poor insulation and high heating bills. The fitness center is useless with outdated equipment. Dangerous surrounding area. Overall very expansive for you are really getting. “Updated” kitchen has very cheap appliances. Electric... issues abound. BEWARE. From a current resident, I warned you.

MSUCHM student--Great 3 years here!
I rented a 2 bedroom apartment here. VERY spacious, and affordable. I had my doubts regarding the noise and 'college' atmosphere, but it's actually very quiet and everyone is friendly. I honestly would recommend this place to anyone who's looking for an affordable clean place, with staff that's responsive to maintenance requests, and great proximity to the medical campuses. Jill and Ruth were also very nice, and were easy to reach by email. I would certainly stay here again.

Good location for downtown and MSU CHM college - Decent price - Super nice staff
We rented a 1 bedroom apartment for our daughter to attend school there. The apartment is large and has all the basic amenities. Like many reviewers here, we find the gated parking is a plus and the security is adequate. Since the buildings are next to the highway, apartments facing inward are probably a better choice. The building manager, Jill, is super nice and responsive. The maintenance people are also helpful.
The only complaint that our daughter has is there is no one in the front office... to receive/sign the UPS/FedEx package like it used to have. In overall, our daughter enjoys staying there.
