Reviews

Former tenant·13 seconds ago

Tenants are very unwelcoming , putting food under parked cars which you pay for parking. A lot of pr

Pros

Near to my place of work

Cons

Building was built very cheaply, you can hear your neighbors every movement neighbors played their music loudly all hours of the day with no disregard for you to have peace so that you can go to work the next day

Advice to the owners

Be more responsible with upholding the rules for the Property meaning dogs feces l do not feel safe when entering my home. Pit bulls running in the yard with no leash on attacking tenants and tennis are afraid to report it because the owners will retaliate against the tenants by scratching their cars and pull knives out on them.
