the staff is always available the only thing bad i have to say is the water outages that happen every so often and there's no lights on at 6 pm and it gets very dark but other than that everything is good

Very good management but the building is old and the neighbor could be loud. The maintenance team is awesome and very responsive. The only negative experience is the loud foot steps from the upper unit

Location is great; staff is very nice but not always competent and sometimes lacks communication between each other. I wish they would have a more proactive approach instead of me having to correct their mistakes/double check docs are accepted.
