January 22, 2026It’s very nice quiet and spacious I would recommend this for a lot of people the rent is just high. A 1 bedroom is the price of a regular 2 bedroom apartmentReview from Apartments.com

January 22, 2026The people I interacted with were exceptionally kind and welcoming, which significantly enhanced the overall experience. Their positive attitude and helpfulness created a pleasant atmosphere during my stay. This social aspect of the visit was genuinely five-star, and I have nothing but high praise for the individuals themselves. However, the apartment's physical presentation could have been substantially improved. While it was functional, it lacked the level of tidiness and polish that makes a ...space truly comfortable and inviting. A more thorough cleaning, better organization, and perhaps some minor touch-ups would make a considerable difference in future guest experiences. To fully match the warmth of the hosts, the apartment requires more attention to detail in its upkeep, elevating it from merely acceptable to truly presentable and enjoyable.Read MoreReview from Apartments.com
