Shitty management. Awful

Pros

Cons

Awful management. They do not respond to anything

Former tenant·Over 1 year ago

Nothing Properly Done

Pros

Location of the building

Cons

Everything is put together by an amateur trying to save as much money as possible. Over time the place continues to fall apart and the owners just apply a bandaid. It’s like they’re trying to get people to leave.
