Review from the web

I recently moved in a unit at Palmilla Apartments. The whole experience was amazing, from application, getting details before moving to the actual moving in day. Jasmine and Chris were very helpful and considerate. They responded to my questions quickly and politely. They always sounded professional and pleasant when I talked to them. The apartment complexes look well maintained. People here are friendly too. since I just moved in, I need to get more familiar with the facilities at Palmilla. I did see people swimming in the pool and the pool area is very clean. There are also BBQ grills for the community. Inside the apartment, kitchen appliances look pretty good. A/C works very well. I am very happy with my decision to live here.
