I’m writing this review to compliment Nancy our Incoming coordinator. I had so many questions about our becoming new renters at the DLP Properties at 209 Cantabria Way. She answered all our questions & concerns. We arrived & found our apartment spotless, & much larger than we could imagine. The other tenants we met were very friendly & welcoming. I would highly recommend anyone who is looking for an apartment to consider these. PS Anthony surprised us with a welcoming gift of chocolates. Which was the topping of our first day!
