Good location. For those currently living there, know that they will take your security deposit. We were required to repaint our apartment at the end of our lease. After numerous inquiries, the leasing company refused to give us the correct paint color. We repaired all nail holes and repainted over them, but were charged for repainting the entire apartment because it was not the correct paint color. $600 for repainting a 300 square foot apartment!!!
