Everything you could possibly want in a luxury apartment... Beautiful fixtures and finishes, a rooftop pool overlooking the Htown skyline, staff members who know residents by name and the most helpful, responsive maintenance team you can imagine for those times when you really need them...accidentally dropped your phone down the trash chute? lost your keys? Novel goes the extra mile every time. I've renewed my lease twice...think I'll just make this my permanent home!

We have been enjoying Novel River Oaks- it's amenities, the location, and the apartment. 2 criticisms- Too many extra charges and the manager has not returned my 2 emails for clarification of what she said about the amount of time given for lease renewal.
