      August 4, 2015
      Is a really nice place to live at, however they are always feeling you that they have to fix the plumbing and the water is always out. They also fix the pool every once and a while but they decide to fix it during the summer! Who does that?! The manager is really rude and they take forever to fix the maintaince requests.
