The 2 bedroom apartment we had was one of the most rundown rooms I had ever stayed in .
There was mould on the floor , water damage , wet carpet , leaking shower and the clothes dryer had no door on it . This room should never have been rented .

Staff were amazing and a big thank you for the upgrade in the room. Room was clean , the only down side was some of the furniture needs replacing and up dating, but that is nit picking. Very happy with my experience and would recommend to family and friends.
