Amenities: We moved in during re-modeling and they are still working through it but I appreciate how they are investing in the building.
Neighborhood: Super safe & quiet!

This place is a good stay for the price you pay. And it is only getting better with the management taking steps to upgrade its facilities. It's located in a quiet neighborhood, yet inside the much-coveted SLU area.

Good space for the price-- things break pretty easily, though. Flooding dishwasher upon moving in. Weird situation with the parking garage. But otherwise, I'm satisfied.
