This place is a 5 if you don’t mind noise; a 1 if you do. Wonderfully laid out and decorated condo with large bedrooms and great layout to provide your family with plenty of room to be together or separate (as you choose). Amazingly convenient location just 1/2 block south of Orange Peel where you can easily walk to almost anything you want to do downtown from Patton Avenue to Coxe to Biltmore Avenue, etc.Underground parking a wonderful feature - well lighted and extremely clean. Modern appliances and finishes along with an extremely large covered balcony. But, if you are sensitive to noise, this isn’t the place for you.
First, there is road noise as it is located just feet from Biltmore Avenue. Can be deafening on the balcony, a hinderance to a light sleeper in the rear bedroom, yet barely noticeable in the communal areas (living room, kitchen) or first bedroom. It will occur all day and evening. It gets better after midnight, but it is always there.
Second, there is a humming noise that occurs irregularly at all hours - usually 5 or 6 times a day. Loudest by the front entry door, it only lasts 30 seconds - 2 minutes max, but it is loud enough to wake someone in the front bedroom (the one that doesn’t haves street noise) when it happens after bedtime. We were told this wasn’t a known issue and they’d work with the HOA to address, might be worth asking if it has been addressed prior to booking.
Overall, we’d return but if you have light sleepers or want quiet, avoid.
