We moved in during the pandemic, in May, and I didn't know what to expect because we were moving from out of state and never saw the apartment. Alyssa created a video walkthrough of our exact apartment for us, even showing us the view from the balcony. She worked with us as we changed from 1st floor to 3rd floor, and answered our millions of questions. Moving in was pretty simple, all things considered, and we didn't have any problems at all.

We DID have problems with hearing our downstairs neighbor throughout the night- he'd play old sitcoms, and his dogs would bark early, and we'd hear them running around or him talking on the phone. But we spoke to him about the tv and he kept it off at night, thankfully.

We couldn't use the amenities at first because of the pandemic, understandable, but it was nice once they opened. It's one of the only communities (besides I think Forest at Biltmore Park) that has 2 pools and two gyms. They even have an indoor basketball court, which I don't think you can find anywhere else- my bf loves to play, and it would've been convenient for him if they weren't renovating it while we were there.

The pools are nice, the gyms are small but very nice and updated with great equipment. Very few apartment complexes have such nice equipment. There's always a lot of parking spaces available and there's never towing issues (like our last apartment where the tow truck was there every night towing guests).

We'd only stayed 6 months because we went overseas for a couple of months to visit family while his job is on hold due to the pandemic... We tried to get back to Hawthorne upon returning to the states but there weren't any available, and that's completely understandable.

Wish we could return, but we'll have to try again some other time.
