I enjoy the Essex house. The maintenance is quick and friendly, staff is helpful, and the pool and grounds are beautiful. Parking is plentiful. Central market access from pedestrian gate. My only suggestion would be to update gym and the coffee shop. Otherwise I recommend to all!

Great location. Great parking. Quiet neighbors. However, the blinds do not prevent lots of light at night. Need to work on this. The gym is nice to have. So far I've msinly used it for yoga. The whole move process was not kind to my back! The staff are friendly. And, helpful.
