Pros: Apartments and grounds are very well kept! The maintenance men, are really sweet and efficient. If something is in need of fixing, they are usually at your apartment within 24 hours. If it's an emergency, they come immediately (they live on premise, so that makes it easier).
Centrally located to all major highways! Shop rite is not to far, there's a really great farmers market down the street as well! Bennigans is right across the street, and Midland Bagels is pretty delicious (please check my reviews for both Midland Bagels and Bennigans for more info)
Cons:
A tad expensive considering they don't have too many amenities (only one assigned parking spot, no gym on premise (which really isn't uncommon for a garden apartment), only two laundry rooms, etc)
Laundry room, there are only two, each have 5 washers and 5 dryers (if they are all working, there have been many occasions where there have been multiple not working). No change needed, which is nice, but, you do have a rechargeable card, only problem with that, is that the re-load station is only located in one of the laundry rooms not both, which is a little silly
Everything is electric, winter months, especially if very cold, PSE&G gets really expensive!
To consider:
The grounds are really nice, and it's a really quite complex. Some tenants, have portable grills, that they keep on their front stoop for some delicious grilled meats during the spring and summer months. They should consider putting in a little common area, which could have a few grills and picnic tables! Sometimes you just want a nice grilled steak and to enjoy it outside in the fresh air! read more
