    Cute apartments! Kelsey did a great job showing us around Canary and was super responsive during the process. The property was nice and clean and the rooftop patio is cool space.

    June 12, 2026 - Review from Apartments.com
    I had a great experience with Kelsey at Canary Lofts. As a first-time renter, I had a lot of questions, and she was patient, professional, and very helpful throughout the process. She clearly explained the lease, rent, and move-in requirements, making everything easy to understand. Kelsey’s excellent customer service made me feel comfortable and confident about renting my first apartment. Thank you for making the experience smooth and stress-free!
