Renters Reviews and Ratings
Do not rent here!!!
August 31, 2024The owners are horrible. There are mice, heat always goes out, tow cars saying to owners they thought they were abandoned there and lie, the apartments are run down and out dated, they say up dated but all they do is slap paint on the place basically putting lipstick on a pig, owners are disrespectful and lie, and multiple residents say you will never see your deposit ever again does not matter how much you clean pr do what they say, they will even charge you for things you did not do from past ...residents. Do yourself a favor never rent here.Property Manager Responded
April 24, 2025Hello! I'm sorry that you did not have a good experience from your time here. I am the new property manager for the new owners that took over the property in September 2024. We've remodeled quite a bit of the property since we took over! If you're near the area, make sure you take a quick peek of the property.
