The kitchen is pretty spartan with utensils. Whenever you run the water (even toilet flushing) there is a horrible grinding/moaning noise from the water pressure tank in the kitchen, but you hear it all over the apartment. The en-suite bath shower and sink is very small and we did not use it. The family/hall bath is better. The view from the front is looking at trash cans. The view in the rear is to the parking lot and we kept our car there. The management company was responsive to any inquiry, but there was some confusion for the code to get in (changed a few times in the hour up to our arrival). There is not much to do immediately around the unit, but if you walk a mile or so, you get to a shopping center with grocery stores, etc. where you can get some ready made food, but no restaurants per se.
