Location x 3!

My brother and I rented from Abodes at Franklin a few years ago. We had such a good time and loved the location more than anything. It didn't even matter that there wasn't parking, we walked everywhere or our friends picked us up. We kept the car in one of their other property lots for free, so we still had the car, just not right outside the door. The apartment we had was one in the back, one of the larger ones. Great place to have friends over, and people stopped in all the time because... of our location. The office was nice and the maintenance was good, we didn't need them much. The Bakehouse staff were really friendly to us, we stopped in all the time for food before class. It was a good year. I would go back and live there again!
