I have been living here for few years. Place has gone through an upgrade not the perfect upgrade but better than compare to what it was. Management definitely had an upgrade. Absolutely love the office staff, amazing ladies always willing to listen and help. #crazyhairday #lavidanueva

I have had a really tremendous experience here. While my concerns had escalating stress at each passing day, the entire staff was a whole bunch of wonderful. I found them to be professional, pleasant, reliable, responsive, helpful, flexible, understanding and probably empathic too. My rep - Diana - just the highest marks. Adriana, kristen and dominique as well. No bs and no eddy haskell here, cant thank them enough. Just when i thought i had screwed myself, they jumped in helping find a resolution for my benefit that i think was just simply more than was expected. Difficult to thank them all properly and enough. No kidding. They are all very young- i will be 59 in days. Very indebted to them.
