Roach infested
I’ve lived at this property for 2 years now, with absolutely no problems the first year. In the second year, Stella Maris property management has taken over and there is an extreme roach problem that they refuse to resolve. PLEASE save your time & money and avoid these apartments. It’s absolutely disgusting!
