I would like to endorse high professionalism and courtesy of the current General Manager of the Beacon of Groveton and his ability to handle parking rules issues.
He exceeded my expectations with his decision in my favor despite lack of strong evidence.
I highly suggest this condominium because it’s conveniently located in busiest part of town but also take care of various issues of its tenants.
Thank you!

Quite impressed! By far the most streamlined and fluid move-in I’ve had. Excellent service from everyone at the Leasing Office and extremely pleased with maintenance. I had an AC request on move in day and, not only did they find it and fix it, but they were here the same day the request was submitted. Last two places I lived in had an average wait time of 2 weeks. Kudos to Moses for his incredible service!
Needless to say, if you look on your map, we pretty much have everything shopping you... would need on a day-by-day, restaurants, groceries, hardware everything. Only thing kissing is an AMC, but the metro is around the corner so all I have to do is go up to Old Alexandria’s.
All in all, very satisfied and looking forward to my time here :)
