    Please do not live here. Miserable.

    Worst place I’ve ever lived and I’ve worked with at least 8 properties in my lifetime. The manager is completely rude, uncaring, and just not someone I want to ever speak to again. I was towed from my assigned spot THAT I PAY FOR and had to pay $200 to get my car. It is my assigned spot. I didn’t call for a tow. I had raw sewage in my apartment for over 12 hours. My toilet in my 1 bathroom apartment was nonfunctional for over 6 months. I couldn’t even have guests over because I wasn’t sure I would have a working toilet. There is constant noise on all sides of me. And the manager has done nothing but blame everyone else and not provide any type of customer/client care or support. Please do not bother living here. Listen to all of the other reviews. Maybe things were better prior to 2020, but now it’s awful and I cannot wait to leave.
