This apartments are the worst nightmare you can live in. The apartments are not sealed, you get all the cooking smells all day long directly to your bedroom, my closet cloths smells like spices and meat and you name what they are cooking starting at 5 am all day long, all the kitchen smoke goes directly to your bedrom and stinks all your apartment for days, the smells wake you up at 5 am I told manager to fix this for 6 months they have not fixed anything. They just told me there is nothing wrong. The non stop cooking from all apartments gets through everywhere, exhaust bathroom, under the sink on bathroom, kitchen. On addition you have all the kids playing soccer on the parking lot hitting your car and they don't pay for damages. On top of that 3 cars were stolen, since this is a bad neighborhood, the apartments are extremely HOT on the summer plus the smoke of the cooking all day long. Not insulated so you get all the cold weather on winter and hot air on summer. Manager Lizet Gallardo do nothing. This is like an old motel they made as an apartment. This is truly a nightmare. Don't do it. You will be regretting asap. Sad can't put less than a star review.

Rent keeps going up and when I place in a maintenance request the delay on getting stuff done is huge.
