Don’t do it .
Management is so
Rude and careless they will
Leave you shaking or crying . They charge you for anything that breaks even if it isn’t your fault or it’s because it’s there old appliance . Walls are so thin you can hear your neighbors coughing and anything else . I have a noise coming from a sprinkler closet that has affected my life dramatically I can’t be in or sleep in my master bedroom because this noise on the other side of my wall and management simply offers nothing and doesn’t care even… though this is a issue that should be resolved asap for it affects everything .Review from Apartments.com
