Hawthorne House Review

My rock, my anchor, my home.

Hawthorne house is a wonderful place to live. It has become a true oasis for me. I moved here under duress-I was such a mess that by mistake I indicated that I was a 'felon' on the rental application. I'm not. Merely, I had to move suddenly and not by choice. I cried so much as I viewed the apartment and filled out the form that they must have thought I was nuts. Lucky for me they let me in.

Sounds odd to say but this place has truly helped me heal from what I was going through. The entire staff that work here are so helpful and kind and truly take pride in keeping this place clean, working efficiently. Its a really pleasant place to live. They take pride in everything, and therefore I take pride in my small but beautiful home.

Some things I love about Hawthorne House:
Everything works and if it doesn't, they fix it promptly and accurately.
Once a week when you come home the whole building smells lemony-fresh.
The pool. It looks awesome and I can't wait to use it this summer. It's on the 40th floor-you can imagine the views. BBQ's too.
At Christmas they have those straw-like reindeer that look like they are feeding on the grounds. Sounds cheesy but its not-I love it.
They always have new plants and flowers on the grounds.
The light and view of the lake from my place is beautiful. The energy vibrant.
The location-especially if you work downtown, cannot be beat. The 145 or 146 Express bus picks me up right outside and has me down at work in like 12 minutes-I am spoiled by this!
Packages delivered to your door even if you are not home.
If you like running by the lake you are right there.
Huge closets-plenty of storage (unless you are a hoarder I guess)
Great staff all around. My guy Arturo is there if I need help hanging a painting or whatever. They are all helpful and kind and thorough.
The laundry room has US magazine and tons of cheesy novels for your perusal.
People who live here are so nice.

p.s. As far as decorating style, to me this is an ideal place for someone who likes a pretty modern, minimalistic style. I used to be kind of cluttery but I'm not at all anymore since living here. While my place is not huge, it feels great for me living here on my own. I am proud to have people over here.
