Property
Beautiful place except for intolerable noise level coz it is located on a main busy street and also the train horn and rumble when it passes by. The ref and stove top should also be cleaned before showing

Property
This property is not accessible like I was led to believe it is. My wheelchair barely fit in the tiny elevator. The photo of the backyard is not accurate. This apartment is up on the first floor, not at ground level like the photo implies. Because of the deceptions I will never rent from that company.
Management
The property manager was amenable.
