Review from the web

Hands down the best location in Metuchen!! Our two bedroom, one bath is spacious with tons of natural light (we’re on a corner unit). In unit washer/dryer, vent in the bathroom, and all new kitchen appliances (building opened spring 2019). Landlord/building manager is very responsive, and the handyman has fixed all our small issues promptly. We pay extra for a parking spot, though outdoor covered bike storage is free. Dog friendly!!
