    There’s a POOL!

    I recently moved in and have been enjoying my space here very much.
    Property management is onsite and they are very friendly and attentive.
    Maintenance is quick to respond to requests.
    Did I mention the pool?!?! Plenty of surface area around the pool for all to enjoy.
    The neighborhood is quiet and people are friendly.
    I’ve been in HP for almost two years; this is by far the best place I’ve been in since moving to LA.
    Cheers!
