Reviews from the web

Showing 5 highest rated

I write bad reviews for some things but have to write the good ones too. I moved here from Texas with only a virtual tour and place turned out awesome. Apartment is close to all the action (main str) so tons of good food options! Also, a 24/7 gym down the street (walking distance). Manager is very responsive. We set a time that I would be in town on a Sunday and they there they were with the key on time! Apartment is also well insulated and gets pretty warm in the winter. Neighbors are nice too, I accidentally locked my self out a couple of times with no phone and they helped me contact managers to unlock my door through the phone. I have only been here a couple of months but nothing but comfort!
