I waited until last minute to sign. Rent was originally $1200 but I got that rate, if I had waited until summer there was a promo for the other rooms in my unit for $800. Good overall, quick maintenance, however there is slight roach problem
One elevator sometimes broken management isn’t so bad, the gym sucks tho
Maintenance got stuff done quickly. This was a semester lease only august- December so rent was a little more I’m assuming.
