    THE WORST MANGEMENT YOU CAN ENCOUNTER! PROPERTY IS POOR.

    Our daughter stayed there from 2021 till 2022 end of June. We had to move her out because of all the worn out door (where the cockroaches) comes in everyday. Toilet seat seal are not sealed . She has to close all the sink area, bathtub area every night before she goes to sleep to avoid cockroaches to come in which we paid the good rent and no one should be dealing with. The room was smell of cigarette and she had to leave her closet
    … door open for the whole year when she was there.
    THE WORST OF ALL ; AFTER SHE MOVED OUT ON THE DAY THE LEASE WAS DONE, DROPPING OFF THE KEYS AND THEY STILL CHARGED HER ANOTHER MONTH RENT!!! COMMUNICATION WAS BAD!!!!!!

    DO NOT LIVE THERE!!! I am reviewing this because no one should be dealing with what we had to go thru!!!!!
