Good Apartment Complex, but Overpriced
The Good:
The apartments are good condition, with great floor plans. The two pools are pretty, and the landscaping is great. The location is nice, close to Lake Baldwin, Winter Park, and downtown Orlando.
The employees are polite and competent, and the maintenance crew are excellent.
The Bad:
Don't let the listed prices fool you. Even if you get the longest contract they offer (15 months), you will be paying hundreds of dollars more per month than the price listed here. Common area electric is... an additional charge, so is a mandatory valet trash service.
The additional fees alone are almost $100 per month. I currently pay about $300 more per month over the advertised price, for a currently listed floor plan.
Residents frequently set their trash out early, so the corridors smell like trash. Management has not taken meaningful action.
The elevators are frequently broken for long periods of time.
The gym has extremely limited equipment, and the equipment available is odd. It does not support a serious workout.
The club room is cool, but the pool table needs new felt, and the available sticks need maintenance.
The corridors and stairwells have not been cleaned in over a year.
The electronic entry gates frequently break.
Overall, I recommend paying an additional $100 per month (over what you will pay here, not the advertised price), and renting at the Paramount in downtown Orlando.
