Review from the web

Was here to help granddaughter move out. Parking places are not numbered on one side. So I parked in a small. Come back five minutes later and some one has parked their vehicle directly behind my truck. Spent five full minutes looking for the owner of the car. He started reading me the book because he has to pay $120. Dollars extra a month to have a cover space. I explained that his as well as the others are not numbered and he needed to go to management and get this problem fixed. He was not listening at all. Glad my granddaughter is moved out. With neighbors like him around I'm surprised anyone can park their at all without problems. And he should have went to an on site manager to register a complaint as well. Then the man didn't park their at all. He parked outside on the street. And he followed us as we left. Stupid.
