Great location, if that's all you care about
Former Tenant
Pros:
Great location! The apartments are sizable.
Cons:
Roaches were the worst part. And the stolen packages, but such is par for the course honestly in such a busy location. Also the third bedroom in our apartment was certainly not up to code.
