Thank you for you review. We’re sorry you had a bad experience. We are looking into this issue and hope to resolve it promptly.

Do not live here.

September 7, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
This is by far the worst apartment I have ever lived in. I had to terminate my lease early due to hazardous waste leaking into my apartment from the upstairs bathroom. The building is not clean and unsafe. They refuse to fix anything. You can barely get in contact with a leasing agent because they never answer the phone. These photos are not what these apartments look like at all! Do not move here. This place is a scam and not worth a dime of what you pay.

great place to live

December 23, 2021 - Review from Apartments.com
its the most affordable rent in the neighborhood for a beautifully redone apartment. plus they have full time security.
