Managemement should be fired
I second all the negative reviews below. I had moved to Aspen as it was a nice place for family. Not anymore. Management/guards asked to police the kids constantly, no jumping in pool, no inflatable toys allowed, no simple ball games, no cycling, no scooter, no skate.... in such a large estate. This is ridiculous. I now hear they don't want any of the celebrations that kids and adults alike used to love. No lantern festival, no Diwali celebration etc... This place is not what it used to be. -

a bit of common sense
I have enjoyed living in this place for almost 10 years. The current management council lacks common sense and reasonableness to ensure this place remains liveable for all residents. This creates a lot of misunderstanding and unhappiness amongst residents. What used to be a family friendly place is no longer so, sadly. -

A noisy, crowded, unruly place
Having lived here many years, it has become almost unlivable over the past few. On the weekend or in the evenings, scores of noisy kids are everywhere and there are many, many more children than a few years ago, they rule this place and it is very unruly. Simple courtesy and condo rules are blatantly ignored and many parents do not even attempt to control their kids, and in fact defend their kids when they break rules that are meant to maintain harmony. The many kids ride bikes, scooters, skateboards in the common areas with no regard for others people walking or trying to relax, as is their right. The kids do need a place to play, not so sure that is the condo’s responsibility to cater for that, but that should not excuse them for playing in areas that other tenants have the right to enjoy without being constantly inconvenienced and disturbed by the constant zooming around, footballs flying dangerously and screaming at the tops of their lungs. The noise at the pool every afternoon, evening and throughout the weekends has become so cacophonous and crowded it is no longer worth going there. Property agents know better than to take potential clients there in the late afternoon. The location is great but the living conditions, and the condition of the place have become markedly run down, and frankly, degraded in the sense of the quality of tenants, unlike it was just a few years ago. Owners of this place will need to consider their property value will decline if something isn't done, it is more like an HDB at this point. -

Gem near Orchard
love to shop in the city and temple near tank road. Has all the conveniences. meidi-ya nearby has a good selection of meats and fresh fish. for unwinding, Clarke Quay and Mohd Sultan have lots on offer. Transport links - your best bet is Dhoby Ghaut interchange where several lines stop. Favorite Mall Takashimaya - has the best stuff. Whats not to like? -

Not impressed
Facilities are basic. Good location and a convenient mini-mart, but that's about it. -

My opinion
Have a look at the comments below to see the sorry state of this condo. Parents have been asking for reasonable solutions and a compromise which would allow all kids and parents to benefit. I’d also like to honestly share my view. Gym? Recently renovated yet still looks horrible with hardly any new equipment. Pool? Dangerous at most times with very sharp edges. Not very practical for a pool, correct? Putting Green? No one uses it. And there are leaves on the field all day long so kinda defeats the purpose for a putting green. Squash courts? They should be converted to saunas due to the temperature inside. Don’t even get me started with the surface that when wet becomes as slippery as ice throughout the condo. Good thing it doesn’t rain a lot in Singapore. And the rest of the condo? Good look with the bugs/mosquitoes round the back , elevators that keep getting stuck - you get the idea... -

Could do with fresh coat of paint
Yes the agree with the earlier reviews that things are looking up for this condo with the facility upgrades and DTL finishing line in sight. The estate could do with a fresh coat of paint and stricter guards who are lax in letting people in and not effective enough controlling the rowdy residents. All said, it would be a great time for investors to get a peace of the action before cooling measures are let down and the rush begins again. -

Latest upgrades at Aspen
Great news. The Gym and Clubhouse toilets have been renovated. Wow what a nice new feeling. Gym has been expanded and love the higher ceiling. Toilets tho' new could have used better materials. The putting green is new too. The old cement bunkers have been removed and everyone looks forward to playing there. Totally not safe for other hard sports because there are people within ear shot, dozens of households literally meters away so loose balls and such go flying into living rooms. Not good at all. Hear management is doing the driving range next. All this after the wonderful lift upgrade. With Fort Canning MRT station taking shape, things are looking up for this wonderful condo of mine. -

Cool place but not strict enough
I like living here. have many Korean friends. Sometimes it is family friendly and cool also for young people because of tennis, squash and golf areas. I can relax by pool and work out at gym. In afternoon it is not so good. rather noisy and busy. it is not strict enough and I think office do a bad job to stop bad things happening like boys ride bike and shouting, playing scary sports frighten young girl. I saw many young and old go back home when bad boys come out to play. I was injure by ball but boys no sorry to me, very rude. Now I go home when they come to play. -
