    I’ve had no problems living here at all, we moved in early so they hadn’t checked the apt and it was perfectly clean anyways. They’ve done renovations outside the apartment and it was really quick and not bothersome at all.

    The rental process was easy, swift, and communication was excellent. The apartment itself has some minor issues, but I am certain that the issues will be addressed as soon as I place the maintenance requests.

    I love my experience here at West town it is so peaceful quiet and they keep the property clean. If you need any maintenance work done, you put in your report in a jump right on it.

    My experience at west town has been good! I like the interior of the apartment space and it is a perfect size for two people. I also do appreciate that the bus stop is near the apartments and that our apartment has an elevator as well.

    Its a decent place I am in the older building so I know not everything is perfect but over all its nice. But the mice that keep appearing in the halls is a little unsettling.
