Reviews from the web

Showing 1 highest rated

Saw this place twice within three or four months and each time the leasing agent never called us back after viewing the place. The units are gorgeous but its impossible to live here if no one follows up or answers the phone when you call to talk to someone. The one con about this place is the price, it is considerably high for the lack of amenities, you could lease at Heinz for $500 less and get every amenity you could think of plus laundry in your own apartment and its a half mile away WITH A VIEW.
