    roaches!!

    July 18, 2023 - Review from Apartments.com
    This apartment complex is saturated with roaches! it's INSANE. Do NOT rent here unless you accept living with roaches...

    Don't move here

    February 11, 2022 - Review from Apartments.com
    If you want your water turned off once a week or to hear kids screaming at all hours of the night, this is the place for you. The walls don't have insulation therefore it's either very cold or hot in your aparment. You can hear every noise your neighbors make. The apartment is made so cheaply that the paint flakes off the wall and the "wood" floor is squishy. The appliances aren't updated so you're truly stuck in the 1950s. Just steer clear of this place.

    Don’t do it

    April 5, 2019 - Review from Apartments.com
    You can hear through the walls so good . The cabinets are so old and broken. Everyone who surrounds me is so loud. This isn’t a good complex terrible parking and management.
