    • WORST PLACE TO LIVE!!!

      June 25, 2021
      Do not move in here! Bed bugs & Roach infested! Terrible Management! Do not let the photos fool you! People in the building steal packages! Water is turned off once a week. Elevator barely works. Laundry room is just for show because it makes your clothes even more dirty. Just say no!
