’ve had a wonderful experience living in this apartment. The community is quiet, clean, and well-maintained, and the building itself feels safe and welcoming. My unit is modern, spacious, and thoughtfully designed. 10/10 recommend
Been here for almost 2 months and I love it. The community is very quiet. Love that everything is close by and at walking distances.
Poor management have apartments infested with cockroaches. You tell them and they disregard. It's a lawsuit waiting to happen. And they raised the rent do better. Fix the problem then raise the rent. They are lucky the city hasn't been called.
