Social Events Over Livelihood

They care more about social events than maintenance of the property. Why would I want to hang out with the same staff that overlooks promises made during lease signing?

ROACH INFESTED

Great location and units are ok if you can ignore the fact that there are endless roaches in the hallways and units. It’s disgusting and unbearable I’ve been here for a little over a year and I can’t wait to get out no one wants to come home wondering how many creepy crawlers will pop out. Management does nothing about the matter definitely not ok.
