  I moved here this past fall. I absolutely love it here. The entire staff is amazing. Tina is a wonderful property manager. She knows her stuff and also takes residents' concerns very seriously. She is a very nice and sweet person. She knows how to handle conflicts or issues and quickly resolves them. TJ is an excellent maintenance person. He does absolutely everything possible to fix issues that arise. He's the best maintenance person I've had at any apartment I've lived in. Kati does a wonderful job taking care of the grounds and the complex. If you have cleaning questions, you can definitely ask her for her opinion, as she's an expert in that area. The things I absolutely love about this place that are outside of the staff: 1) We have an underground garage that is included in our rent. We get one parking space. Albeit, the spaces are very tight down there, but it is great to have that peace of mind with the garage. 2) All utilities minus electric are paid for. A lot of places make you pay more than that. I'm happy to find a place that just requires us to pay electric. 3) Free internet up to 50 mbps. I don't have to get my own account from Xfinity or CenturyLink. Contracted tech support if there are issues. 4) Free car wash. We have a bay in the garage to use. 5) Storage units for free. Tina maintains a wait list for people who want to have a small storage unit. It's the size of a very small closet, but it's great! You provide your own lock. 6) You can have pets here. 7) You can plant flowers and decorate your patio (within reason). I love flowers, so I'm happy I can plant them again. Plus, you can grow your own food (within reason). Think potted plants for food. 8) Locked entry. Either have a key or you call a resident, and they buzz you in. 9) Security cameras in some areas of the building. I hope they expand them to the perimeter for outside and on every floor, including expanding the one by the mailbox to get the entire view of it, so when packages are not taken upstairs, they can be monitored, and more in the parking garage. 10) Secure package room - code required to get in. There are some downsides living here. 1) The main one being that there is absolutely no insulation/buffering of noise. The walls and ceiling are so thin, you can hear people walking around above you, neighbors being loud, and it can be a bit disturbing. 2) There are only two laundry rooms for all the residents to use. It's a hit and miss when the laundry rooms are free. I wish they had one on first floor. 3) The elevator is great, but it is out of order a lot. Tina does her best to have the elevator person to fix it, but it's been happening more since I first moved in. 4) Ants are everywhere and love to invade the building. However, we do have a pest control company that comes out monthly to handle issues. They don't spray in our apartments monthly. Rather, they come when we make a complaint. I had an ant issue when I moved in. But it was taken care of. As long as you let Tina know about it, they will handle it. 5) No grills allowed. That's corporate's policy, even though they are allowed in St. Paul. Going to the back parking lot is okay, but we're not allowed to store grills in the garage, in our apartments, in our storage unit or on our patios. Where exactly are we supposed to keep them, especially if we don't have family here that can keep it for us? However, indoor grills are allowed as long as they are electric. 6) No fireworks allowed, not even snappers, or smoke bombs. While fireworks are illegal in St. Paul, small novelty ones aren't. 7) No sidewalk chalk. We should be able to make art. It's not permanent. Art can actually help curb appeal. Overall, this is a wonderful place to live. The pros outweigh the cons by a long shot. I hope to stay here another two or three years, if not longer.

  It hasn’t been less than a week since I’ve moved in and our kitchen sink has overflown with dirty used water….twice. No one was home the first time so my leather shoes were soaked and ruined. The bathroom tub is so fragile that it creaks loudly when standing on it, making it impossible to take a relaxing shower. There are multiple holes in the wall by the vents indicating a bad mice problem. They didn’t even have the decency to CLEAN our carpets before we moved in so we had to rent a cleaner ourselves and do the hard labor. To top all of this off, the walls are so thin that I can hear my neighbors talk, argue, and have intercourse. Worst decision I’ve ever made in my life. No matter how cheap the rent is, remember that it’s cheap for a reason. Invest in the place you can home if your able, and stay far, far, far away.

  Great place to live. Office staffs are really helpful. Living here for the past 2+ years finding everything better comparing the same budgeted apartments. The key facilities that make you amaze are controlled building access, party hall , heated underground parking, monitoring cameras, car wash, 24 hour emergency maintenance, inside Trash chutes, elevator access, tenant storage. It’s also pet friendly i got a chance to have parakeet in my home. The underground heated parking and trash chutes really going to help you all through Minnesota winter. Close access to cub foods, Dominos, Target, BP, planet fitness and dollar tree in sunray mall The fitness centre and BBQ grilling area - don’t expect more on this. Well designed floor plans with good spacious designs.. good closet space and a balcony will make you love to choose Suncliff

  Too close to freeway pollution. Strange management.
