Reviews

Former tenant·Over 2 years ago

Decent and Clean

Pros

Management had staff come and clean the hallways. The front door system was always secure, and packages were safe.

Cons

We had several cockroaches during our lease. But it happens. I will say the building DID provide regular extermination for units.
