Reviews from the web

Showing 8 highest rated

I've been living at the Brittany Apartments for 4 years now. It's changed management a few times, but I would be remiss if I didn't mention how great Santino has been. He goes above and beyond to try to solve any issues. He has been the best property manager, hands down. I appreciate the fact that he shows that he really cares about this place. Glad to be here and it's because of him!
