    Be sure to carefully review all move-out policies and fees before renting here.

    I do not recommend this apartment complex. The staff was friendly, but the overall experience was disappointing. The apartment was old and required frequent maintenance, and I often had to call for repairs.
    When I moved out, I left the unit clean, took photos as proof, and shared them with management. Despite this, I was charged cleaning fees, move-out fees, and several other unexpected charges. It was also difficult to get someone to do a final walkthrough, and my concerns were ignored.
    Be sure
