    Look elsewhere!

    Regardless of how desperate you are for a place. DO NOT waste your time here. They will let you apply and pay the money to do so. Then they will give you the run around with communication about moving forward with the process to get the lease and move in. Spent a week sending emails and phone calls with no answer to either.
