This is my 8th year in The Octagon. I has had a very pleasured experience since 2018.
This passing year has been very hectic. Those social issues described above, needs to be address.

The Octagon has a lot to offer in terms of location and atmosphere, but my experience has been impacted by a roach infestation that started from day one. Despite multiple treatments, the issue has persisted, which has made it difficult to feel fully comfortable at home. I hope to see more effective and lasting solutions implemented.
