Review from the web

10/10 I’m being extremely unbiased and very strict it’s that good, trust me I would know. During my visit/tour of the apartment with my friends Mitchell & Jaylen I instantly noticed numerous amounts of positives and no negatives at all. Every area is super clean with an aesthetic setting, the aroma/smell was super pleasing, also all staff members are insanely friendly compare to other apartments who are usually rude. I am roommates with my friends and they assisted us with our lease and other questions with friendly attitudes. They made sure we get the best deals without any sketchy offers. It’s the best spot you can possibly choose especially compare to the other 7 apartments we toured none of them are in the same league as Cardinal and I haven’t even began to list the other incredible reasons to choose Cardinal, I have only scratch the surface.
