Showing 8 highest rated

I went to check out these apartments a couple of weeks ago and management was amazing. They gave me an entire tour, and super friendly, the model home was furnished in a way that painted the picture of what i was looking for. I recommend 120%. I was able to ask the deepest questions about the area and the complex itself and got very good insight. The only reason i couldn’t move there is because last minute i got relocated for work. But if i move back to Houston i will for sure ask for Mrs. Morales. Thank you.

Everything about this place is awesome. Been living here for over a year now and I’ve NEVER had an issue with this place. Maintenance response is always on point, staff is always professional and always making it feel welcome when I go to the office for anything. Lived in a few apartments on this side of town and this is the best one I’ve ever lived in. Have recommended to many of friends and family looking for a place. So if you’re looking for a place, THIS IS THE PLACE!
