Review from the web

I have lived here for over a year, and I had a great experience so far from the day i applied to now, maintenance is quick and efficient, and the office staff has helped with any questions that I have had and they send out informative emails regularly. The area is super nice, I am so close to grocery stores, the mall , Carlsbad Village! I love how much the staff tries their best to deal with all of us seeing that there is over 1000 people here, they are great! I would 100% be renewing this year.
