Zero stars. Worst management team. No communication. Not worth the price. Just want to scam you. Worst experience. Would not recommend to anyone.

Very nice living space. Always clean and decorated well. Amenities always clean and looking good too. The only issues I have had are that the circuits are not strong can’t handle two things at once and have to go to the breaker box often. The air also has issues time to time with freezing/breaking, but maintenance is always on it the next day.
