I would strongly advise you go pretty much anywhere other than this place. They took my payment for the month, and then two days later illegally evicted me and told me that two days after that they were going to dispose of my belongings, which is also an illegal. They know it’s illegal because once I started talking about going to court and suing them, they gave me a little more time, but still not a legal amount of time. Forcing me to go to the court and file in order to show cause and request an emergency injunction.
Also, as a sidenote, they knowingly have about 10 homeless people living in the units it walk around drunk, smoke cigarettes and crack in the hallways, and occasionally urinate on the floor. Several units have been broken into, including a woman who are bunch of expensive jewelry stolen.
Seriously, go literally anyplace else.
