Review from the web

We moved in earlier this month. since it's a new apartment, everything is brand new. The hardware and appliances are of good quality. We chose to live here mainly because of the vinyl flooring (I can’t stand carpets). So far, I’m happy with the place. The management and maintenance teams have been really friendly and responsive—Hannah has answered all our questions since we moved in, and Dan has helped us resolve a few minor issues.
