    Very nice, answered all of our questions honestly and in full

     Property

    It was nice for the prove and what’s included. The kitchen cabinets and appliances were outdated but it was with the cheastest unit so that’s normal. I would live here and not be embarrassed if I have people over

     Property

    Very overpriced for the tiny apartment you’d be getting. The lowest rent advertised is actually for their outdated tiny floor plan, no dishwasher or washer/dryer, a stove and oven that looks like an easy bake oven, a cramped bathroom, almost no storage space, and no where to put a kitchen table or anywhere to eat.
