        What can you ask for, this apartment is so convenient. It's right across the street from target, Michael, walmart, Costco and the freeway entrance is close by. I've lived in this apartment for 5 years now and have had no issues. When I needed something to get fix, the apartment manager and assistant mangers were always helpful. The apt is perfect for the price that we pay for and you won't find apt this cheap anywhere.
