Such a nice apartment compared to the other boulder apartment complexes. Leasing manager is SO SO friendly she literally knows residents by name-- shows how much she cares. If you have any problems they are basically fixed immediately. I renewed as well, plan on staying here for a while.

The apartment is insanely overpriced for what you get. The paint job was clearly a rush job, they obviously don’t do any cleaning or maintenance between tenants, and everything breaks or is already broken. The second star is because they do have decent amenities including the pool and gym. My shower drain was completely clogged the first day I got here and didn’t get fixed, plus the walls are genuinely filled with mold between the tiles. The rooms and shared spaces are too small to be charging over $1000 plus utilities. I don’t even want to think about what else might be filled with mold or other dirt and grime because I don’t think I’ll clean my clothes here again. The apartment smelled a little moldy the day I moved in and we haven’t really been able to get rid of the smell since. Leasing office closes without notice frequently (not always but often enough) and our mailbox doesn’t actually lock. If you’re in it for meeting new people and just having a place to sleep then go for it but otherwise I would NOT recommend moving in here.
