    The entire rental process has been fantastic. I had tons of questions and the staff were super friendly and open to answering them. However, when I moved into my unit, it was kind of dirty. The big items in the unit were clean but the floors, until I mopped, left black residue on my feet and there were tons of spiders around the unit.
