Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

Rented from this place for something like 4 years and never had any problems. Would have kept renting if we had remained in Fargo. One of the thing that stood out - the walls were quite soundproof for an apartment. Only things you could hear were generally from right outside your door in the hallway.
