    10 stars!!!

    Thank you orchards for giving me a place to call home. I’ve never stayed anywhere where it felt like the people cared about their residents. Bryan Jaime Shelby and Rosie are the best! And make my stay here pleasant. Alicia is so sweet for doing the most for us. Eduardo Jose and Edward are amazing and it never takes long for my repairs to get done. Thank you again!
