Easy to use Easy to use

Spent two years here. The place itself is great. Awesome pool and okay facilities. Bus stop out front. MRT a few stops away. Had an on again off again relationship with the management. They are absolute parking nazis. I've seen multiple residents get into shouting matches with the front guards on multiple occasions because they are so unnecessarily rigid. If you have anyone who wants to stay and park the night, you can count on them paying into managements pocket for that - 5 dollars a night. What a rip off man.

Cheap finishing condo and very noisy as close to the highway. Has good facilities. Windy and bright, most of the unit have breeze run thru, so you don't feel the heat. Not convenient for public transport though as not on main flow from Holland V or Orchard, and no MRT nearby.

Not so much about the building itself, but the management. In particular, a senior Indian and one younger Indian guard here are rude beyond measure. As a visitor, due to the width of my car, I always take the outer lane entrance for residents when I come here, rather than the inner lane for visitors. This is because, the visitor lane is built narrower than the resident lane, so it can be easy to scratch your rims on the kerb there. Every single time if it is those two guards on duty, they would look at me in disbelief and demand aggressively why I took the resident lane to enter, and not the visitor lane. I have always stopped short of the gantry to explain to them why, and for every other guard they understand. But for those two guards, they would look at me and asks why other cars can but I cannot, after I have explained the reason why already. I cannot possibly use the narrower guest lane to come in because you guys cannot take liability for a damaged rim, so I am going with the next best understandable option already. Hope management can train the guards better in people skills.

Well maintained estate, with full condo. facilities. Bus stop right outside entrance of condo. 3 bus stops to Farrer MRT (Circle Line) or Commonwealth MRT (East West Line). 4min and 8min bus rides (on either Bus Service numbers 105, 123) to Botanic Gardens/Napier MRT (Thomson-East Coast Line) and Orchard Road respectively. 8min walk to Holland Village via back gate. Plenty of food options (hawker, fast food, restaurants) nearby, within walking distance. Some people are bothered by the traffic noise, easily solved by installing sound proof windows.
