  • Bugs bugs bugs

    October 28, 2024
    This property is infested with roaches!!!! Trashy property I long moved here because it was the 1st spot available I plan on moving as soon as I find something better. No one deserves to live in these conditions.
    Review from Apartments.com

  • Lies and Roaches DONT DO IT

    July 10, 2022
    As simple as it gets, they don’t come to exterminate the apartments, they lie to you about coming out to fix everything that you put in as maintenance request. The Roof leaks, the pictures on the tour are different than the apartment you’ll walk into. I didn’t have bedroom doors for the first 3 weeks of living here, im on month 3 and the ceiling in my second bedroom is moldy and peeling.
    Review from Apartments.com

  • This property is horrible

    April 17, 2022
    I only lived here for no longer than 6 months and I just had my baby the whole unit was infested with roaches; it was so bad my boyfriend had to keep calling off work for the extermination appointments to the point he lost his job. We were so desperate to leave anyway so we moved right away.
    Review from Apartments.com

  • Terrible

    September 18, 2021
    This place is overpriced, disgusting and terrible management. Me and my family have been living here for 7 years bc they charge you $1000 to move out. Near the stairs is a large pile of trash that reeks. I can’t tell you how many times we asked them to come exterminate. My window in my room has a bullet hole from a full year ago and no one has reached out to come and fix it. Every step you take you see trash and dog poop. The pictures of the apartments are only for some not all and the flooring ...
    is fake wood. The marble on the counters are fake also. This place is just terrible.

  • PLEASE DO NOT MOVE HERE

    August 3, 2021
    I relocated from another city and was fed so many lies from the office staff. My friend was shown a completely different apartment than the one that was leased to me. The same day I moved my belongings there was the same day I turned in a 60-Day Notice to move! It is complete trash, literally and figuratively! The place looks nothing like the photos online! I don’t even feel safe going to the apartment that is being leased to me. I always take a friend with me and go during daylight! There is no ...
    way that people are even remotely giving this place higher than a 1 star and honestly I would give it a 0 if I could! PLEASE DO NOT MOVE HERE! Save yourself, your family, your money, and your peace!

  • Awful place and awful people

    February 6, 2021
    Completely invested with roaches and mice, moved in and within a month the ceiling in the bathroom was molding, the floor was sunk in, you couldn’t step on it. The dishwasher had mold and leaked all over the floor when used. They put out an eviction for a late fee and told us the amount we had to pay to stop the eviction, it was the late fee plus next months rent, we paid it and they told us multiple times we were fine just couldn’t be late anymore, they didn’t stop the eviction and they ...
    destroyed our stuff and won’t give us our money back even tho we paid for the month they kicked us out at the beginning of.

    May 30, 2018
    This place actually sucks I was just a visitor and I was truly appalled at the condition of the apartment that they moved my people into broken window roaches rats they moved them into a unsafe and unsanitary apartment I wouldn't recommend anyone move here it's trifling the residents need to get together and file a claim against the owners and the management
    Review from Apartments.com

  • Awful

    October 1, 2017
    Please don't move here, unless you enjoy having bugs crawl around and mice just invading your space!!!! This place is awful. Its by far the worst place I've ever lived!!! The manager is two faced and only pretends to care when you're in the office. The minute you leave, she doesn't think about it again. You have to call multiple times to get them to do anything, period. Just Don't do it
    Review from Apartments.com
