I’ve been here for 2 years and have enjoyed every bit. I’ve never had any big issues besides maybe a roommate transfer & smoke detector batteries changed out:) Staff definitely helps out a lot and the maintenance doesn’t take long to fix my problems:) but i definitely would like to thank Yulisa Flores! She’s excellent:)
