I lived here for three years and I loved my space. Maintenance was always very timely; if I put in a request one day, they would show up the next or even the same day. Bill was amazing and always helpful in the leasing office, very responsive whenever I had questions or concerns. The hallways were cleaned regularly and my floor was very quiet most of the day. I am so glad this was my experience as a first-time renter!
